Today’s post is a reminder that it is the process rather than the numbers alone.

We are certainly advocates for achieving financial freedom to go after your personal and life goals. We also recognize that it is largely the process that makes the difference in whether or not happiness is attained in the short and long term.

This is one of the reasons why we feel strongly about working together as a couple. Doing this enables a stronger relationship overall, meaning that you’ll be more likely to enjoy your riches together.

It’s also not a particular amount that matters. Getting hung up on numbers, particularly with the economy as it is, won’t make it any better. Hang in there and work together. Yard by yard it’s hard. Inch by inch it’s a cinch.

Cheers,

Miel

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.
