Time to manage that money

With all of this talk about the possibility of an economic recession, all of us are keeping a close eye on the economy and our own personal finances right now. My friend Allison told me about this new web site she is using that is what she calls a “FREE financial advisor.” The link is: http://www.mint.com.   You just plug in your banking, credit card, savings, 401k, investments, whatever you want (and can leave out whatever you want) and it tracks everything for you.  She absolutely loves it because they send you alerts when bills are due and even help you set up a budget.  She only has her checking account and a credit card registered and it tracks her purchases and labels them so she can see what categories all her money goes to. It’s nice to see it all visually laid out (and painful to see how much my finance charges are - sick!). I haven’t checked it out yet, but when I have some time on my hands I want to try to add a few of my accounts in there to see how it works out for me. It can’t hurt to try it and all of us can use another method to handle our money a little bit better right now.
