Good Morning Dinks.  Well I’m back from Vegas and I have to say that I am a little bit sad to be home.  I definitely miss the warm(er) weather and I’m sad to be back in our 4 feet of snow.  I had a great time in Las Vegas at Blog World’s New Media Expo and I really enjoyed catching up with my FinCon friends.  I hope you all had a safe trip home.

I love going to blog conferences because I get to meet great new people, I get to travel to a new city and best of all I get to learn a lot about blogging as a business and social media strategies.  This year I hope to attend BlogHer’13 in Chicago, the Blissdom Conference and also the Financial Blogger Conference. So fingers crossed.

Enjoy these great posts from our friends around the web:

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.
