Good morning Dinks and Happy first Friday of the New Year.  I wish you all the best of love and wealth in 2014.  If you are like me then you already have your entire year planned out.  I can’t wait to hit up BlogHer in California in July and FinCon in New Orleans in September.  I am also looking forward to growing my career and getting out of my comfort zone.

What are you looking forward to in 2014?

Have a great first weekend of the year.  Enjoy these posts from our personal finance friends.

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.
