I know I’m a little behind the curve for promoting a movie that came out in 2006, but it couldn’t be more reflective of the issues our society is facing than today. I was in grad school back when it first came out, but it was well worth a checking it out on Netflix instant movies.

Maxed Out is a documentary that takes a critical look at both consumer debt and the role that government has played in the build up of American debt. It also touches on our national debt issues that are now finally coming to the forefront after all these years.


You might want to gasp out load at parts as I did, James asking what the latest scandalous thing was about, but it is well worth the watch.

It features one of our favorite economic types, Elizabeth Warren. We are glad to see that she is helping to address this mess that we’ve gotten ourselves in to.

Enjoy,

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.
