Go Green & Save

Need a better way to manage your money? Quicken has a great tool, Mint.com, a free application that you can use to manage your money. It’s a great website because you can use Mint.com to maintain all of your financial accounts (credit cards, stocks, savings, etc). I’ve set up my Mint account to have monthly budgets and you can see the breakdown of your spending habits. It’s really changed the way I spend. You can even set up your account to notify you when you go over your budgets and they can send you text messages.

If you’re worried about hackers, don’t worry about people getting your financial information. Mint.com provides bank-level security by signing in anonymously.  You can not move any money, it’s a read-only service.

Try it out to save and go green!
