e1189964154.jpgFor the past few weeks I have enjoyed a rare satisfaction known only to myself and 3,000 other individuals. The once invitation-only financial planning website Mint.com was where I checked my bill balances, monitored my shopping habits, and scanned for ways to save. And since my time being Mintified, I have finally seen some dough at the end of the paycheck.

In truth, there are rare occasions where I find myself so enthused by a website that it hits my list of sites to blog about. But Mint.com is no ordinary website. To begin with users sign up with Mint and add accounts to their profile. After the usual Credit Cards and Bank Accounts are added through the secure interface, Mint scans your account details to determine whether your interest rate is too high, your gas bill just average, or if you’re spending too much money renting out DVD’s.

What’s more is this fantastic service comes at little more than the cost of air. It’s free as in zilch, nadda, zip, nothing. Which means you can probably fire that financial planner and start saving your first buck.
