Happy Friday DINKS. I hope you all had a great short work week.  I wish I could say that I enjoyed the sunshine with corn on the cob, BBQs, and Fireworks but the truth is that I have been sick in bed with a fever since last Tuesday.  Let me tell you that having a fever in July really sucks!

On a brighter (and healthier) note today we are celebrating Giveaways from around the web. First let us start with the winner of our FREE BOOK GIVEAWAY.  Thank you to everyone who hit us up on Twitter and who left a comment here on DINKS. The winner of a FREE copy of Debt Free For Life by David Bach is Kathleen Crocker. Congratulations Kathleen!  Please send us an email with your mailing address. I know that everyone can’t be a winner, but I suggest that everyone pick up a copy of this book because it is an easy to follow self help guide to pay off our debt and find financial freedom.

is important for all blogs (not only those in the Personal Finance niche) to offer their readers free stuff because we all like to be rewarded for being loyal clients (or readers).  Everywhere we go retailers offer free giveaways to their clients to ensure their continued business. Coffee Shops offer loyalty cards to get our 6th coffee free when we buy 5, and nail shops offer a discount on our manicures if we also buy a pedicure, and furniture stores offer televisions if we buy a living room set.  It’s only normal (and good business) that the online blog community also offers free giveaways to our readers. Who doesn’t like free stuff? I know that I do!

These websites are currently offering FREE GIVEAWAYS:

  • Giveaways Are Sexy is a site designed specifically to giving away something new every single week.  How cool is that? This week they are giving away TWO Dave Ramsey Starter Kits, and TWO “Total Money Makeover” books by Dave Ramsey — 4 things total. Check out their site every Monday for a new Giveaway!
  • Financial Samurai is currently giving away a bonus box of personal finance and investment books. Visit his site for more details on how to be entered into this contest to win.
  • Yes I Am Cheap gives us a heads up on Free Giveaways from Craigslist.  She is a frequent Craigslist shopper and is sharing her online shopping and savings strategies.
  • Young and Thrifty is giving away a copy of Rich Dad’s Cash Flow Quadrant by Robert Kiyosaki. Robert Kiyosaki is a New York Times Best Selling Author and a Financial Cash Flow Guru.  Young and Thrifty recommends this book to everyone so check out her site to enter.

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.
