Mint.com
Some of you may have possibly heard of this new website already. the rest of you should feel relieved to know there is finally a site to help you keep track of all your money.
Founded in Mountain View California way back in 2006, Mint.com and its whopping 35 employees are helping over 5 million members keep a tight view on their bank accounts. At first this may seem like a huge identity theft scheme, but the company was recently purchased by Ituit, the same company that produces TurboTax, and Quicken. This is most certainly a legitimate web based company. Mint has raised over 31 million in venture capital revenue and has received the support of tens of thousands of financial institutions across the globe.
The concept is very simple. Log into mint, create a free account, give Mint.com access to your bank accounts, and keep tabs on your money everywhere you go.
Rather than logging into to separate accounts online to view all your individual credit cards, department store cards, and checking accounts; they are all compiled into one easy to use interface. Downloading the mobile app to your iPhone or other smart phone device makes it even easier to be up to date.
But wait! There's MORE!!!
Mint.com also allows you to set monthly financial goals or "budgets," and will send you polite reminders when you are either not meeting your goals, or doing really well. It's like a less judgmental version of your parents!
Mint.com is compatible with more than 16,000 financial institutions and over 17 million types of financial accounts, so its very unlikely that it wont be a perfect fit for your needs.
So go give it a shot... you won't be disappointed.
