• Why I'm Excited About Tracking My Expenses

  
  

  Mint.com  has me excited to start keeping track of my expenses. I heard a lot about this site and figured I would finally give it a shot since I finally have a job now and will be getting paid regularly. I didn't realize how precise it was though and I must say I am very impressed.
  
  It connects directly to your bank account and figures everything out for you! I thought I was going to have to categorize my own things, but there is no need for then when you've got the trusty internet. There is still a lot to learn on the site I'm sure, but what I can see as of right now I do like. I have a hard time managing my money and it's especially important right now since I need to be on a tight budget. I have some credit card bills to pay off and I want to catch up on everything that I owe so I'm really counting on this site to give me a push in right direction. 

  
  
  If you're not already signed up, I would recommend giving it a shot. It's completely free and secure and it's pretty easy to manage. It's also completely customizable and you are able to add almost any category that you could ever possibly need.
  
  Do you consistently have trouble keeping track of your expenses? What have you tried? Do you have any tips for getting the most out of Mint.com?
