<prompt> Human: Someone just suggested I use Mint.com to help me track expenses. Do you guys find it helpful? Is it safe? Just for my checking account, to help me figure out a budget for personal finance. TIAEDIT: Thanks everyone! I decided to go ahead and try it. Hopefully with more practice I can eventually switch to Excel or something similar. Appreciate the feedback.  <response>: Yes its safe. You do have to give personal information to them so it depends if you are comfortable doing that. Its a decent way to create a rough budget and it tracks expenses and payments well in my experience.
