Just started Budgeting through Mint

[TabbyCaticus]

Hi all!

So I had joined Mint a while back but never connected my accounts to it. I did that last night. To my surprise, after budgeting for everything, I had $300 for the month left over! Apparently I've just been throwing it away at this and that all over the place. I'm so glad that I put in this budget! They have a mobile app as well as a website, so I'll be able to keep track on the go and limit my spending. I'm really excited, because I can make extra payments on my debt with this money, and save up for some home repairs.

That’s great!

I use Mint as well, but not so much for budgeting. For that I use YouNeedABudget. However, Mint is a great platform for many things. It keeps a lot of financial stuff together, and the "goals" function is also helpful.

Good luck with your budget!

Budgeting is SO important. How awesome to know that you should be able to save $300 per month. That will really add up fast.

I like Mint a lot. I use it to track everything. I am not really sure how to figure out what I've got "left" at the end of the month, but it is good to know where the money is going.
