Happy Friday Dinks.  I hope you all had a great Valentine’s Day yesterday.  My boyfriend Nick and I stayed in and had a low key night with good food, wine and a little bit of chocolate. I love the idea of Valentine’s Day but I hate going out in the cold in February, so we opt to stay in.

How did you spend your Valentine’s Day?

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.
