00:00What if your next tax refund was 20% bigger than usual?
00:03Some Americans could even see up to $10,000 more in their checks.
00:07But here's the real question.
00:09Will you spend it or turn it into real wealth?
00:12According to Donald Trump, new tax changes could lead to much larger refunds in 2026.
00:19Experts say the average refund might increase by about $1,000,
00:23and millions of Americans could see bigger payouts this tax season.
00:26The Internal Revenue Service says if you file online and choose direct deposit,
00:32your refund usually arrives in about three weeks.
00:35Legendary investor Warren Buffett says most people shouldn't try to pick stocks.
00:39Instead, he recommends investing in an S&P 500 index fund,
00:44which gives you a piece of 500 of America's biggest companies.
00:47Meanwhile, billionaire investor Ray Dalio says having some gold in your portfolio
00:52can help protect your wealth when the economy gets uncertain.
00:56A tax refund can disappear in one shopping trip.
00:59But invested wisely, that same money could grow into thousands over time.
01:04So when your refund arrives this year,
01:07will you spend it or make it work for you?
