You say, huh? That’s right, James & Miel are back in the game. After a two year hiatus for international work, we have partnered back up to blog once again.

Now we are both back in Washington, mostly anyway, we felt that this was the right time to jump back in to blogging.  For those who may be new readers, we began writing DINKs on the eve of our marriage, six years ago.  We have also grown a great deal in the last two years and wish to share that journey with readers.

As a brief update for DINKS readers, we started in 2003 with a net worth of approximately $50,000 – we’ve managed to grow that to about $844,000 today and anticipate being north of $1,000,000 in a year or so.  We should be able to offer our readers the latest and greatest about; stocks, small real estate management, small web development projects and how to manage the emotional side of being married and handling money as a team.

So stay tuned

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.
