Mint Suggestions
The beauty of Mint isn’t the free management tools, the up to date information, or the fact that it works with nearly every bank and every credit card. No, it’s that Mint will analyze your spending and make suggestions on how you can save money each year. They also track your bank and credit card’s interest rates and offer alternatives that will ultimately save your from wasting unnecessary funds on service and interest charges.
So Long Identity?
Mint.com doesn’t magically have access to your bank accounts once you give them your email address. You need to first be enrolled in web banking, then you have to provide Mint.com with your user names and passwords. Before you close this review and accuse us of trying to steal your identity, Mint.com stores absolutely no personal data. Your user name and password is transferred from Mint.com to your bank using bank-level data security and SSL 128-bit encryption. If that doesn’t mean anything to you, does guaranteed security sound a little better?

What’s the catch?
No catch, at all. Honestly. It’s completely free due to the affiliate commissions Mint makes through their suggestions on how to save money. You save money while Mint.com makes money. Everyone is happy including Mrs. Joe now that Joe will stop spending money on junk he doesn’t need.

I use Mint – and so far I like it….it basically shows you how you are spending your money – and it is is good to know…..
This sounds like it could work out well for our little LLC. We need to get serious about our $ management and a web tool would be much easier to share workload than a local app with a passed around db. I think I’ll give it a try.
Definitely very cool. I’m glad I decided to follow up your review and sign up for it. Really, really easy to get everything started/entered and this should be very useful for us. Thanks again.
Hi Steve,
Many thanks for the review and post!
