dollar billsHappy Friday DINKS.  I hope that you all had a nice week, I am at home as I recover from my eye surgery and I am definitely enjoying my time off work.

Don’t get me wrong I do like my job, but sometimes it’s just nice to get out of a routine.  I am definitely not looking forward to waking up at 7 am every morning when I have to go back to work, actually I totally hate the sound of my alarm clock and I wish that I could start my day with another sound.

We found some interesting posts around the web this week and we are sharing with you for your reading pleasure.

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.
