Thing # 6

The Web awards tool that I explored was http://www.mint.com . I lwas pulled in by the mint color of the web design. It had many tools that you could use such as adding your bank accounts, debts, investment accounts, automobiles, credit score, etc. This tool allows families or indivdulals to sets up a budget for their household and gives ideas on how to save. The system is a read only system so if a hacker tried to steal out of your account they can not switch money around in your accounts. The system is also on a banking system of secured. Mint also has additional security for there site. This sight is great for someone who wants to organize their finances. I did not like that the value of you vehicle was not attainable through the site. I am happy that I chose to play with this tool. I recently saw an article advising this site so it was an opportunity for me to utilize the site. The features are helpful and easy to use. I do not find this site useful to the school or library unless it was used for a parent workshop. Some parents would love to learn more about money management and it would be a great to for a parent liaison.
