#7 - Mint
Mint is like using Quicken, but is a easier approach. It takes very little work to manage your money and all of your banks, loans, and credit cards are accessed by securely logging into your accounts and downloading the information into Mint. It organizes all that data, and displays it in nice, easy to read graphs on where and how you are spending your money.
Using Mint has been a wonderful way to keep track of how much money I am spending on gas each month, or how much I am spending at restaurants. You can setup budgets and have them alert you when you exceed those budgets. The only requirement on your part is adding your accounts in and categorizing your transactions if Mint can’t figure it out automatically.
Currently Mint does not support every bank or credit card. Almost all major ones are supported and Mint is always working on adding more in. Head over to Mint and start seeing how you are spending your money.
