If you want to start budgeting better...

Listen, we all deserve a little splurge here and there, but if your addiction to The Real Real is getting a bit out of hand, there's an app for that.

With Mint, one of the earliest and most popular personal finance platforms, you can easily track and manage your spending, create a personalized budget, and get alerts when you're going overboard on shopping or dining out. And if you're saving up for something big (a house, vacation, or that pair of designer boots), Mint can also help you stick to your long-term savings goal.

If your dad is no longer tracking your credit card purchases, this is the next best thing to help keep you in check.
