As much as I tried to complete my budgeting posts before I went out of town, I didn’t accomplish it. I’m speaking at a blogging Conference this weekend, and knew that filling the fridge with some food for my family needed to take priority.:)
With my husband working in accounting, he has created an extensive budgeting spreadsheet for our family. I’m going to delete our personal information and share it with you as a PRD file when I return from my conference. In the meantime, some of my friends (and also a commentor on the previous budgeting post) has recommended a free online money management software tool - Mint. com. It’s really easy to use and over 1.5 million users house their budget there. It categorizes everything for you, every day. You can determine the categories yourself, and rename them whenever you want so if you’re not happy with the options Mint.com has set up for you, just choose your own. My only initial concern was that of the bank tracking. They have a very thorough explanation, and after much research, and recommendations, feel confident that it’s one of the best free software tools available.
(It’s been named the best online personal finance tool by Money Magazine, PC Magazine, and is PC World’s Editor’s Choice.)
