While it might be a no brainer for some, eating fresh fruits and vegetables that are in season, particularly those that are local, can do a great deal to help your bottom line.

In honor of the harvest season, try checking out a local farmer’s market this weekend. You can enjoy juicy apples, tasty butternut squash for soup, and don’t forget to roast the pumpkin seeds from your jack-o-lantern!

Even if you aren’t buy local, you can still have your grocery budget go a great deal further by skipping out on fresh strawberries until summer rolls around.

You can also feel good about supporting local produce and doing your part to cut down on fuel prices for transporting food products an average of 1,550 miles.

Readers: If you have any good buys at your local markets we’d love to hear about it!

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.
