| Good morning, Daily Money friends, it's Nathan Bomey on this first day of April. Be on the lookout for April Fools' Day jokes, friends. And remember what my dad always told me: The first rule of joking is ... make sure it's funny. |

| 💡 INSIGHT OF THE DAY: If you're one of the 40 million Americans who received unemployment insurance in 2020, you won't have to pay taxes on those benefits as long as you make less than $150,000.

| 3. Retirement savers in their 40s have this median balance. How do you compare? |
| 4. How much will you pay in taxes over the course of your lifetime? Maybe it's better not to look, but if you have to, here's the answer. |
| 5. When is misleading marketing acceptable? Brand experts say Volkswagen messed up by lying to reporters about its faux "Voltswagen" rebranding strategy. |
| 6. It's National Burrito Day! Check out all the deals rounded up by Kelly Tyko. |
