Is there anything comparable to mint.com out there for free? I realize that mint is free, but my main bank hasn't worked with mint.com for about 4 months now, and I've had them open "tickets" into it, but all they say is they are working on it. The last update I got was 3 months ago.

Wesabe has a Firefox extension that helps to automate their update process. What a bummer. Wesabe doesn't work with my bank either, even though it is listed. I sent off a help email a while ago with no response. I guess I could do the firefox downloader, but it seems like such a pain.

Is there a reason why my "Quizzle" score would be over 100 points different than my Credit Karma score? There doesn't seem to be anything wrong with my credit. 1 opened credit card that I pay off completely monthly, and a couple of old car loans that have long been paid off, and my score is 659 on Quizzle and 778 on credit karma. I know that these aren't true scores, but it seems a bit alarming to be so different.

Is it better to put as much as your money as you can into your 401k as you can to avoid taxes? I recently started a new job where I make more money than previously. My new employer matches 5% with their stock I believe. So right now I just have 5% going in. However now with the new job, I pay a lot more taxes. So is it better to try to max out your 401k to avoid taxes as much as possible?

Moniker posted:Rule of thumb is put in what your employer matches then start a Roth IRA for the rest. You're not avoiding taxes because when you retire you're going to pay taxes on it. A Roth IRA is post-tax so you've already paid. K, thanks. My previous employer didn't have any matching funds so I already had a Roth going, I'll just increase my contributions to it.

How do credit unions tend to work when it comes to interest if it is compounded quarterly? Like does the money need to be in there for all 3 months or 1 day or what?

I accidentally exceeded my HSA for the year. I didn't realize that any "employer perks" also get dumped into my HSA. (We got money for getting a physical done, and some wellness style activities) So I ended up with 300 dollars extra. I've read that I have 2 options. 1. Pay 6% fee on 300 dollars, and adjust my next year's to exclude the 300 dollars. (plus whatever interest it earned?) 2. Get a check for the extra, and claim it on my taxes. Option 1 seems like the much better choice since 6% is way less than my taxes. Is there some sort of catch here?

I have a variety of different accounts open. Like 3 checking accounts, 3 savings accounts, and a couple of investment accounts. Is there something I should be documenting if i get hit by a car tomorrow and die, so that my wife will at least know where my money is hidden? I mean, I know about power of attorneys and stuff, but should I make a a list of account numbers/locations? Most of our money is in joint accounts, but I've opened up a few different accounts in the last year because the interest rates were better on some online banks.
