Good Morning Dinks.  Today we are discussing some great products that are specifically designed for Dinks.  Our good friends at Dink Life have recently launched Dink Deals, which lists deals for Dinks in a variety of local cities from Abbotsford, British Columbia to Wichita, Kansas.

Dink Life is a website; actually it’s more like a community forum that was designed just for Dinks. You can search for a job, read about Dink-trends, chat with other childless couples, and even go to Dink meet-ups in your local area and socialize with other Dink couples.

I personally love the idea of someone providing me with the option of taking a no-kids vacation or having dinner at a non-kid-friendly restaurant because to me the sound of screaming kids is like scraping nails down a chalkboard. If my boyfriend Nick and I ever do decide to have kids we will need to have some type of guarantee that our kids will be quiet and clean. Does that exist?

Dink Deals is a daily source for local deals on a variety of activities from rock climbing and hot air balloon rides to travel deals and adventure excursions. With Dink Deals you can save on a variety of products and services, you can save 48% off of your next movie ticket or you can save 63% off of a bike tour through Boulder Mountain, and at the end of a day who doesn’t love a good deal?

3 Reasons to Love a Good Deal:

1. You will try new experiences.  Signing up for with a daily deals website allows you to learn about new products and services in your local area.  Signing up for daily deals with websites such as Coupon Cabin, Dink Deals, Groupon, Dealfind, or Living Social lets you try new experiences at discount prices, so if you hate it at least it’s not a total loss.  I discovered a new spa and a new restaurant with Dealfind.

2. You will save money.  Everyone likes to save money, right? Signing up with a deals website will help you discover new products and services in your local area, but it will also help you save money on items that you already love.  I have purchased two hair cuts at discount prices from a deals website, I got a normally $65 haircut for only $29.  In my opinion that’s a great deal. Yes male-dinks women pay $65 for a haircut.

3. It’s easy to sign up.  Sometimes I don’t sign up for services or product websites because the sign up process is long and tedious.  If a service is easy to join then more people will sign up…facebook anyone? I also don’t like to join services that I have to pay for; this is why I am not a member at Costco. I don’t feel that I should have to pay to get a deal or discount, if a company wants my business they will sell me their product or service at a discount, I shouldn’t have to pay for it.

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.
