hair dryerGood morning Dinks and happy first Friday in May. Remember my bad money day with the bad hair dye job? Well this week I finally got it fixed and just in time for my trip to NYC. Next week I am headed out to NYC with my mom and my sister for some shopping and fun.

You know I love NYC so I’m really happy to be going on vacation. I am also happy that after over three weeks of having my hair an ugly shade of red brown it’s finally back to its normal shade of dark brown.

How are you celebrating the first weekend in May?

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.
