Hello All,

THIS DRAWING IS NOW CLOSED.

It’s Tuesday. Following on our theme of giving away free stuff, today we are are making a free copy of Asset Allocation for Dummies, 1st Edition available to our readers.

Asset Allocation for Dummies is a part of the very good series on personal finance from the Dummies brand of Wiley Publishers. This particular book focuses on how to select assets. Selecting assets is important because much of one’s portfolio return has to do with what sort of assets one chooses to buy. If you’ve already got the basics of personal finance down and want to move into more advanced investing, this book can be helpful.

It covers the abcs of asset allocation, including an intro to some basic concepts, investment strategies, portfolio maintenance, rebalancing and following up to monitor your results. If you want to graduate beyond the basics or just need a reality check, you’ll eventually have to deal with asset allocation questions. While not perfect, this book can point you in the right direction.

Best of all, its free! If you want a copy of Asset Allocation For Dummies, just leave a comment on this posting. We will randomly select the winner on Friday and mail you a copy of the book. Don’t worry if you have already signed up for another DINKs giveaway, you are eligible for both!

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.
