We've long been aware of the awesomeness of mint.com, but it has come to our attention that they've stepped it up a notch over there, bringing that sweet mintyness to your smart phone-- for free!
This is honestly one of the most useful apps I've ever come across. I won't lie, I hate doing budgets, and I'm not all that great at following them. Things somehow always appear different on paper than they do in reality.
"What!? My new appreciation for iced tea and pilates are adding up to an extra $200/month being spent?? Two concerts and the gas money to get to them actually mean $175 out of my pocket? Can I still make rent??"
Where does it all go?!
This app can tell you.
Link the Mint app to your Extra Credit Union account and credit cards, set your personal finance goals and commitments, and watch it track your progress. Find out immediately if you are dipping into the red in any category-- too much money being spent on clothes or groceries or entertainment-- and take the steps to correct it before it becomes a problem.
There are graphs and colors; there are goals and achievements; there is technology here to help you Rule your money!
Rich Minty Goodness. So easy, yet so useful.
