long time... and yodlee!

I have to admit, it's been a lot harder to keep up with this than I thought! Manually updating my budget/finances has been harder than I thought, as I didn't want to do the additions manually. However, I was able to find an awesome website that might help me keep up here on a more regular basis. It's called Yodlee.

Pretty much it's a online aggregator for all your bank and investment accounts, as well as a few other types. It can keep track of your budget, cash flow, credit utilization, net worth, and more, all automatically for you. It really helps especially if you carry cards across multiple issuers, and saves you the hassle of having to go log into each site individually.

As for security issues, there may be some concern about having so much info contained in one place. But I trust that their site is secure, due to the fact that Bank of America apparently utilizes this site.

So if you're looking for a way to simplify your financial life, try out the site. You'll love it.
