The Pearl Carpet of Baroda is perhaps the worlds most valuable carpet. Valued at over $5,000,000 the carpet is made of entirely of jewels. Its constructed from hundreds of rubies, diamonds, sapphires and an over estimated 2,000,000 Basra pearls.

In the early 1860’s, Maharaja Khande Rao of Baroda, who was really, really rich, became possessed with a strange desire, that he must offer a priceless pearl carpet at the shrine of Prophet Mohammad in Medina – this is funny, seeing as he was Hindu. The Maharaja had his men make the carpet, but died before he could present it to the Prophet.

If you want to finish the job for him, the carpet goes on sale on March 19th at Sothebys.

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.
