Web 2.0 Solopreneur Site Of The Week: Mint.com

Our nation is in the midst of the largest financial bail out of Wall Street in history. We as tax payers are going to have to collectively pay out almost three quarters of a trillion dollars due to bad real estate loans and greedy heads of major banks. We are now going to have to look after our finances with a fine tooth comb. Every one of our hard earned dollars has to be stretched to the limit.

Keeping track of our finances has become a major factor with the way our economy has faltered. Mint.com is and online money management service that allows you to see all of your online accounts under one umbrella.

It gives me an interactive pie chart view of all my spending habits. Mint.com also gives me advice on how I can make more money buy analyzing my current bank accounts and making suggestions on others that will give me a higher interest rate of return.

    I signed up for the Mint app, but it does not have either one of my credit unions and they cannot tell me if or when those institutions will be in Mint. I do not want to use more than one app.

    My credit unions guarantee my accounts for an aggregate of $500K; twice that of banks with the new rules. I'm not moving my accounts.

    Too bad.

    Hey Waterprise2,

    Thanks so much for your insight on your two credit unions not being on the Mint list..
    If I were you I would post this to the Official Mint Blog
    http://blog.mint.com/blog/
    I would also follow Mint on Twitter http://twitter.com/mintdotcom and see if you can inquire when your credit unions could be listed.
    Also if you can share the names of those two credit unions, many of use would like to have a $500k guarantee as well.

    Thanks for sharing

    JB

    Here is some additional information I found on the http://www.mint.com/help/ site

    I can’t find my financial institution.
    Try searching for the URL instead of the name. For example, you can find Compass Bank by searching for “compassweb.com”.
    Instead of searching for the generic term “Visa”, search for the card issuing bank (e.g. “Chase”, “MBNA”, “Bank of America”). The bank name will be listed on the back of your credit card.
    If you still cannot find your financial institution, contact us via our contact form.
    What should I do if my US financial institution isn’t supported?
    If you can’t find your financial institution by doing a search by name or by URL on the the “Accounts” tab, please let us know. You can submit this request via our contact form. We’ll need the name of the financial institution and the URL you use to login to your account.
    Note: Mint currently only supports banks in the United States.
    We are adding new banks, credit unions, credit card and investment companies as quickly as we can, and will do our best to notify you when a financial institution you’ve requested is made available on Mint.com.
