Good morning Dinks, happy Friday and of course Happy Valentine’s Day.  I hope you are all enjoying a lovely day with your loved ones.  Nick and I will be spending Valentine’s Day as we always do, we order food from our favorite restaurant and stay in.  It’s way too cold up here in the Northeast to get dressed up and go out for a night on the town.

The difference is this year is that we will be staying in and watching the NBA All Star Game.  Can I just ask one quick question – who in the world thought it was a good idea to host a male dominated event on Valentine’s Day weekend?  So that’s what I’m doing tonight.

What are Dinks up to this 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.
