Happy Friday DINKS.  It’s the last Friday in February and hopefully the warm weather will be upon us soon.  Even though I live in the (usually) snowy North East I admittedly hate the winter.  It is not the cold air that really bothers me so much as it is the wind, the grey skies, and the wet snow. But hopefully that will all be behind us soon.

We found some great posts around the web this week and we are happy to share them with you.  Enjoy and Have a Great Weekend!

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.
