cupcakeHappy Friday DINKS, and Happy Easter to those who are celebrating this holiday. 

My 40 day chocolate fast is officially over.  As you read this post I am probably enjoying a big chocolate cupcake from Magnolia cupcakes in New York City.  I am in New York City until Sunday night and I have lots of fun activities planned for my 3 day trip to New York City.

Later today I have an appointment at my local TD Bank branch to open a savings account, this afternoon I am getting my tattoo at In Born NYC Tattoo shop with Chris Torres (from NY Ink), and tomorrow night I am going to see the musical Mary Poppins on Broadway.

I hope that you all have a great weekend.  Enjoy our favourite posts from around the web this week:

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.
