This is my final post that I will submit to Miel and James for DINKSFinance as their part-time writer. Unfortunately my full-time job responsibilities are changing in such a way that makes it impossible for me to fulfill those and still have time to put in the effort I feel is necessary to deliver quality content for Miel and James.

First of all, I’d like to thank Miel and James for giving me this opportunity. They took a chance on a young person with no writing experience and they had enough faith in me to let me write about what I wanted. They supported me in a fantastic way, and I owe them a huge debt of gratitude for all that they have done for me. I really enjoyed my time writing for them, and I’m very sad that I will have to let this go. I only hope that they feel that their faith in me wasn’t misplaced and that they enjoyed having me on board as much as I enjoyed writing for them.

I would also like to thank the readers of DINKSFinance for not only reading what I had to write but also commenting on my posts, following me on Twitter and sending me emails. I really enjoyed interacting with you, whether you agreed with what I had to say or not, I valued your feedback a great deal, and if I’ve improved at all as a writer since I came on board, it would be a great deal because of my interactions with you. I think DINKSFinance has a great community, one that I’ve certainly enjoyed getting to know from this side of the webpage.

I’ll still be an avid reader of DINKSFinance, and I’ll drop a comment or two every once in a while for sure. Again, it’s been an honor to be a part of this website, and I’ll certainly miss writing my posts. I wish Miel, James and David the best of luck, and again, thank you.

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.
