Jamal Thomas- Budgeting is important for your future

     Over the course of this semester we have learned about various websites as well as learned different features of using excel. This class amongst others has been more beneficial to me in dealing with the world in respect to finances. Although we have explored an ample amount of websites, one website that has been the most beneficial amongst others is mint.com. Mint.com has allowed me to look at my finances holistically. It has allowed me to take more control of my money. My favorite feature on this website is the budgeting feature, when you put you bank accounts into the system it gives you the option to group and filter where you spend your money.Moreover, it allows you to set budgets according to your finances, you are able to limit yourself so you can monitor how much you spend in a month or in a week. As we continue and complete this semester I encourage you all to take advantage of this website. 

    In addition, to learning and utilizing mint.com another benefit of this class is the encouragement to really utilize our resources. This technology age has allowed us as a generation to do many things. As technology continues to evolve it is essential that we keep up or get left behind. As students we have the opportunity to take full control of our finances and our future with these easily assessable resources we are allotted.
