| Good morning, Daily Money crew, Nathan Bomey here. Today is usually a day devoted to paying Uncle Sam, but that's not quite the case this year. More on that below. |
| If you're like me, you've noticed that the competition to get "likes" on Facebook and Instagram often leads to social anxiety for many people. Well, both platforms are now poised to give you the option to hide "like" counts altogether on your posts. |
| That may be worth liking. |
| On to our ... |
| 💡 INSIGHT OF THE DAY: We're heading into prime home-buying season. About 56% of existing-home sales occur from March through August. |
| BTW, yesterday I mentioned that we're having some technical issues with some of our links. If you're still running into problems, let me know at nbomey@usatoday.com and I'll alert our team! |
| 📰 Here are our top stories: |
| 1. When will 'plus-up' stimulus check payments arrive? Those catch-up COVID stimulus payments are coming. |
| 2. Toilet paper. Masks. Hand sanitizer. 2020 was a year of shocking shortages. |
| 3. Searching for a home? These are the top 20 U.S. housing markets. |
| 4. Bernie Madoff is dead. Here are some of the celebrities the scam artist victimized. |
| 5. Instagram for kids? Advocates call for Mark Zuckerberg to cancel plans to create a version of the social media platform for kids under 13. |
| 6. Once upon a time, today (April 15) was known as Tax Day. Though the deadline to file has been extended, you might be better off filing by today anyway. |
| In an unusually responsible turn of events, I filed my tax return weeks ago instead of waiting until the last minute. YAY ME. |
