This weekend, my wife Miel and I had a good friend over for the weekend. We ended up spending a good amount of time discussing Brad’s interest in buying a house. This got me thinking about the current stock and real estate market, and weather it makes sense to go hunting for assets in this environment. Right now, valuations for some stocks (we like canroys) are more attractive than over the past few months and there are plenty of houses available in most local markets, which means that you could get a good price if you have good credit and you’re looking to buy.

I’m not the only one, everyone’s favorite guru, Kiyosaki is saying the same.

Food for thought.

Best,

James

MANAGE YOUR MONEY TOGETHER

Here are some simple guidelines for DINKS to build wealth:

1) Collaborate: Meet regularly to talk about money, set goals together, track and monitor them.

2) Understand and respect your partner. Take time to understand your partners values about money.

3) Watch the numbers. Get a budget, monitor your spending and track your net worth.

4) Max your retirement. Maximize contributions to your tax deferred retirement accounts.

5) Invest in stock. Stocks perform better than bonds or cash.

6) Avoid high interest debt. Credit cards and title loans are financial cancer.

7) Diversify. Don't put all your eggs in one basket.
