I got up this morning and started reading the news.  Evidently there was another round of riots in Minneapolis, Oakland and aggressive protests in Portland, Oregon last night.  This comes on the heels of civil disturbances in Chicago and Denver earlier this month.

Here is the latest from Portland.

It’s normal to let bad news impact your thinking. Don’t.

Don’t Worry. America is going to get through this crisis. We’ve weathered two world wars, a civil war, several financial crises, and the turbulent 1960s.

Here is a 2015 quote from Warren Buffet illustrating our nation’s long run promise:

??? 240 ????? ??’? ???? ? ???????? ??????? ?? ??? ??????? ???????, ??? ??? ?? ?? ???? ?? ?????. ???????’? ?????? ????? ?? ???????? ??? ?????????? ???? ???????? ?? ??? ???? ??? ?????? ????. ???????? ?????? ???????? ???????? ???? ?? ??????? ??? ??????? ???? ???? ????????. ???, ???, ???????’? ???? ???? ???? ??? ?????? ???? ????? ??????? ???.

So, keep saving, keep making smart investing decisions and by all means, take care of the people in your life.

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.
