Its been a couple of days since we last posted, Miel and I just got back from a quick visit with Family up in Bucks County Pennsylvania. If you’ve never been to rural Pennsylvania, its a historic and marvelous place to visit. Parts are well worth the trip.

The major problem is that now we’re both back in DC and running around like crazy trying to get x-mas gifts for friends and family! Neither of us have really had a spare minute to plan or make the holiday as great as it seems on TV.

We’ll keep you updated on the holiday damage to our pocketbooks!

Happy Holidays!

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.
