Financial Apps can Help You Budget and Save

If you are considering bankruptcy, or simply are feeling financially challenged, there are some apps available to smartphone users that can help you budget and create a financial plan. During this unprecedented time of COVID-19, many people find themselves in a completely different financial situation than they did even just a few months previously. If you feel you are financially challenged and need to find solutions, consider the following apps that may help you achieve better financial security during this unprecedented time. 

 

Budgeting 

 

Before you have money, you have to create a budget. There are several different budgeting apps that exist, including HomeBudget. These apps typically allow you to enter in your monthly or weekly expenses and then track your spending as you go throughout the month. Having a firm grasp of your finances is critical in order to ensure financial freedom and eventual wealth. 

 

Mint

 

One of most popular and powerful financial apps right now is Mint. This app syncs a person’s savings, checking and investment accounts along with all credit cards and loans. This will give a person a complete snapshot of their financial health and worth in easy-to-see graphs. Budgets can easily be established, and there are ways to actually set financial goals. 

 

Credit Karma 

 

One of the most important things you can do is to check your credit score and FICO score periodically. Credit Karma allows you to continuously check your credit scores in real-time and keep constant tabs on your credit health and financial scores. This is incredibly important because you can then immediately address any potential instances of fraud as they occur. 

 

Acorns 

 

If you begin to develop a solid financial foundation, you may want to actually consider investing at some point. While many people feel that investing is overwhelming, the Acorns app allows people with little to no investing experience to “micro-invest” on their platform. This app can help people invest, earn, and save for their futures. 

 

Qapital

 

Along with micro-investing, you may want to consider micro-saving. The app Qapital will allow users to “round up” their purchases to the nearest dollar and then place that extra amount into a savings account. This can help people work towards long-term savings goals. Over time, a person can save a substantial amount of money that can be used in emergencies or for something that they have needed to save for over a long period of time.

I realized the true function of a lawyer was to unite parties riven asunder. The lesson was so indelibly burnt into me that a large part of my time during the twenty years of my practice as a lawyer was occupied in bringing about private compromises of hundreds of cases. I lost nothing thereby — not even money, certainly not my soul.
