So, I took break from the University today and headed down to the town of College Park to get a snack. After meandering around, I stopped into a couple of convenience stores. Since I only had a buck, I was looking to pick up some candy. To my chagrin, in both places I couldn’t get a thing. Hershey’s bars were a $1.06, including tax. So were peanut butter cups, and peppermint patties.

Well, even if it doesn’t buy you much here in College Park, I guess its some conciliation that a dollar can get far more in other countries.

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.
