Budgeting Apps

[Petorius]

Lots of personal finance nerds on here... what do y'all use? I remember Mint from a few years back, I'm sure that's still around. Anything better?

[RyanNicholson]

I swear by Mint myself... I've seen ads for others but haven't had much desire to change.

I just started using mint again last weekend after forgetting it was around.

Dart board. That's about as accurate as I can be in predicting what the wife will spend this month.

It's been a long time since the yellow pad was enough to track my money... Gone are the days of simple savings and checking. I use mint because I can centralize almost all of my accounts in one place and see both big and small picture. A few downsides are: some accounts have stricter security that doesn't allow them to view in mint. The budgeting tool doesn't really work unless your finances are pretty simple. It's a little bit of work keeping everything signed in and categorizing transactions.

My time is worth more than doing it all by hand.

Also, mint thinks I am crazy for all my moto spending. Racers may not want to know their bottom line... LOL

I use mint. I use that to compare to my budget in Excel.
