Money Management

When talking about money, it never surprises me when I ask people where there money goes and they don’t know.  Tracking your spending can be mean the difference of having the extra money for retirement, or avoiding a late or overdraft fee.  A great way to do that is with online banking.  Some banks, such as Wells Fargo, have spending trackers that show you what you spend your money on.  Yet for those who don’t have that, that have multiple accounts and want to get a full picture of your spending habits, use Mint.com.  Powered by Intuit, Mint.com can track your spending by category, compare your normal spending habits to yourself and others depended on the region that you live in, as well as help you set financial goals to save or improve your credit.  It is the best all in one website that I have seen that is the SAFEST!  You will not only be amazed at what you see, but all empowered to start taking control of your money.
