NEW YORK—Urging Americans to think long-term when considering any financial decisions, experts from Wells Fargo recommended Monday that taxpayers earmark a portion of their return from the IRS for funding their dream sandwich. “Rather than spend that money right away, what would happen if you set it aside as an investment in the sandwich of your dreams?” said certified financial planner Rhett Bonham, adding that every dollar saved today could amount to a bigger, better panini, hoagie, or grinder down the line. “If you’re expecting a refund this year, that money could be the first step you take toward a delectable chopped Italian sub for you and your family in the future. Maybe you won’t have enough for a multilayered club, but placing your annual tax return in a compounded savings account could land you a nine-inch eggplant parm on semolina in as few as five to 10 years. Now, you may be tempted to blow it all on a bag of chips as soon as it hits your account, but you don’t want to hit 50 and realize you’ve never tried a roasted mushroom melt with horseradish aioli, do you?” Bonham went on to warn that it would only become more difficult for everyday Americans to procure a sandwich in the future as private equity company Blackstone had already purchased 60% of sammies in the U.S. alone.
