by debt kid on September 18, 2007

Update 2008: Quicken Online is now FREE. Join HERE first.
I was lucky to get to be a beta-tester of the new online finance application mint.com. I wouldn’t usually write reviews like this, but I even shared this site with some of my family members because I thought it was so cool.

Money and my mood

by debt kid on September 17, 2007

by debt kid on September 10, 2007

I thought I over drafted my business account into oblivion (ie, beyond being able to bring back), but thanks to some deposits posting it looks like I’m going [...]
