by Caton October 6, 2014 ~ 8 Comments

I had a surreal experience last weekend. After my husband and I had a delicious Cuban dinner in Manhattan with friends, the four of us walked off our meals by exploring Central Park. The night was perfect. It wasn’t too cold and Central Park was a new experience for hubs and I. I was in […]

by Caton August 27, 2014 ~ 6 Comments

tangalooma

I’ve been lucky to see a lot of cool places in my short 27 years, but there’s one I can’t forget. I remember it like it was yesterday. I was in high school traveling with dozens of other high school students on a 3 week trip to Australia and New Zealand. Looking back, I realize […]

Bees Finance Rules

HERE ARE SOME SIMPLE GUIDELINES THAT WILL HELP YOU BUILD WEALTH:  

PAY OFF HIGH INTEREST DEBT: DON’T CARRY A BALANCE ON YOUR CREDIT CARDS

TAKE WHAT UNCLE SAM GIVES YOU: MAXIMIZE YOUR CONTRIBUTIONS TO TAX ADVANTAGED RETIREMENT ACCOUNTS

DON’T PROCRASTINATE: WEALTH TAKES TIME TO ACCUMULATE, SO DON’T WAIT

SAVE, INVEST AND REINVEST: LET COMPOUNDING WORK FOR YOU. SAVE YOUR MONEY, THEN INVEST AND REINVEST IT

SAVE AND INVEST AT LEAST 5 TO 10%: PUT ASIDE AT LEAST A MINIMUM SO YOU’RE STUCK WHEN YOU’RE AT RETIREMENT AGE

HAVE AN EMERGENCY FUND: IF YOU CAN’T SAVE 6 MONTHS OF EXPENSES, GET AT LEAST $1,000 SAVED UP

OWN: OWNING ASSETS IS GENERALLY TO YOUR ADVANTAGE. GET AS MANY AS YOU REASONABLY CAN

IF YOU ARE MARRIED, BUILD YOUR PARTNERSHIP: HAVING A STRONG MARRIAGE CAN BE AN EXCELLENT ACCELERATOR. WORK ON YOUR MARRIAGE AND CARE FOR YOUR SPOUSE.
