Happy New Year Dinks.  2012 was a great year for me and I am definitely excited to see what 2013 has to bring.  During 2012 I accomplished 3 things on my Life List: I visited Boston, I walked in the St. Patrick’s Day parade and I published my first book. Woo Woo! As you read this post I am in amazing Las Vegas attending the New Media Expo aka Blog World, so far 2013 is looking pretty great.

What was the best thing that happened to you in 2012 and what are you most looking forward to in 2013?

Enjoy these great posts and totally awesome giveaways from around the web.  Have a great weekend everyone.

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.
