Saving and managing money is hard, no cap. But could the answer to getting your money right be in the palm of your hand? These five apps could be exactly what you need to finesse the hell out of your finances!
#1 Mint
All money management starts with budgeting, and Mint is one of the OGs. Track your spending, put money toward goals, and more. If you want a more personalized, robust budget, “You Need A Budget” is the app for you – but it costs money.
#2: Joy
Joy is a savings app with a twist: it’s built around maximizing happiness. Instead of making you feel bad for purchases, it learns what you like to spend money on – and gives you free personalized financial advice!
#3: Kidfund
Want to save for your children’s future? Kidfund makes it easy. You can even make it simple for friends or family to contribute to your children’s savings account – watch that money grow so they’ll be set up when they grow up!
#4: RoundUp
If you want to make sure you support causes you care about, RoundUp makes it almost automatic. A few cents from each purchase automatically get donated – you can even choose PushBlack as the beneficiary!
Learn how to trade stocks risk-free with this free app. First, it teaches you what you need to know about the stock market, then lets you loose with $100,000 in fake dollars to invest in their stock simulator. If you succeed, you might be ready to invest for real!
