Milestone

I'm one step further toward reaching my New Year's Resolution: as of today, I have paid off my credit cards.

\o/

I also have enough money in savings to pay off the credit cards that are "same as cash" debts, ie no interest for 1 year or whatever, when they come due. And I'm almost half way to my goal of having $5K in savings too.

I'm using a free website to try to figure out where my money goes. Oddly enough, most of it seems to be going to pay off debt right now. :) But now that I'm through with that, I hope to move on to how to budget my money to plan for each month. So far I have found I spend a lot of money on food. I need to work on eating out less now.

Here's a link to the site, if anyone is interested: https://moneycenter.yodlee.com

is the site good, you think? have you gotten any spam or anything? i'm not sure why they want my entire address etc... *nervous*

It's a good site, I think. I've been using it for a year off and on, and my friend that recommended it to me has been using it steadily for a couple of years. It's a beta site for a company that then sells the services to large investment/banking companies, so their code is pretty secure. As with all internet banking though, it is a small risk.
