MINT.COM IS AWESOME!!

[timmis1127]

So I was browsing around the forum and saw people use mint.com to keep track of their finances so I decided to give it a try and started playing around with it and it is awesome!! While browsing through my finances I realized in the month of November I spent $517.00 on restaurants  needless to say I was appalled. Then I looked on December and I have spent $301 on restaurants and I was still appalled. Really made me sit back and realize that I should take my lunch to work and stop eating out so much on weekends!!

Thank you for everyone who suggested using the website its a real eye opener and I recommend it to everyone!!

I'm curious about trying mint.com.  Anybody know how safe it is?  I feel a little nervous giving them access to all my accounts.

I think it is safe, I think it is an intuit website (i could be wrong) which is the maker of Quickbooks

$820.00 in two months for eating out?  Your out of your mind.   I spend that for feeding my son and I every 4-5 months.....

A lot of people I know use it, but I just dont' feel comfortable having that thing pry at my personal information.  I get very resistant to things like that. It's also why I don't do those Google wallet things.  I feel like that's TOO MUCH information that could get comprised in one place.

I looked at MINT last night and I'm also nervous about allowing access to my accounts. So like the previous post said, how safe is it? I know mint says 128 bla bla.
