Students can manage their money at Mint.com
May 19, 2009
I’m totally over this financial crisis business. People everywhere are homeless and jobless. Also, there are only so many ways to write an article without resorting to the overdone, “In today’s down economy, blah blah blah…” Nevertheless, it’s an issue that affects every one of us, which means that economic and financial education has never been been more important.
To help your students ease into the world of managing their own money, tell them about Mint.com. It’s a free site that helps users create a budget, track bank accounts, watch spending habits, and monitor investments. Mint will offer helpful suggestions on how to get out of debt or buy an affordable car.
Instilling good financial sense into your students now can help them make sound financial decisions in the years ahead. Mint.com can help them do exactly that. -BILL FERRIS
