Mint has been merged with Credit Karma, and the result is incredibly disappointing. Do you have any suggestions for a replacement budgeting app?
We were hoping YOU could tell US!
No seriously, we are also devastated at the closure of Mint (merger, whatever... the point is Mint is no more). It was our go-to recommendation for budgeting software.
The best alternative we know of is YNAB: You Need a Budget. But I haven't done a price comparison yet, and we haven't personally tested it.
I just woke up all stupid from taking Benadryl and saw this in my email. I was like “What’s Credit Karma gotta do with my One True Pairing? Why am I to flex Diana and 47 on CK?

Understanding Credit Scores for Kentucky Mortgage Loan Approval: Insights by Joel Lobb, Mortgage Broker

O' highly esteemed and knowledgeable Bitches, I first off wanted to say that I am one payment away from fully paying off my beater of a car and the thought of having that extra money to throw at other bills is exhilarating! Secondly, because of this extra money I am looking into possibly consolidating my other bills. Interest rates on credits cards are too fucking high and it's seemingly impossible to make a dent in paying anything off. A friend has told me to look into Credit Karma to search around for loan providers before committing to a bank, but I'm not sure how comfortable I feel with sites like that. Is Credit Karma and other sites like it trustworthy enough or should I stick to my guns and go with my bank for loan?
First off kiddo, we are SO DAMN PROUD OF YOU. You're doing SO well and we are weeping with joy over here.
Credit Karma is considered very safe and legitimate. We endorse it, and after looking at its security measures, I can confidently say I'd use it myself if the need ever came up.
We also advise shopping around for loans, rather than just going with your personal bank for convenience's sake. You can get much better terms if you hunt around, and Credit Karma can probably help with that. We explain a bit more about shopping around for loans here:

The entirety of Tuesday, meaning from 5 a.m. to about 9 p.m., has me serving as a poll worker, the seventh time I will have worked as an Arlington election officer. And then I’ll have to set business aside by mid-afternoon Friday to start my journey to Lisbon for Web Summit.
