I started with Mint, did some categorizations, and stopped because it told me I had no income budgeted (but I did). I could not figure out how to fix it. Plus I'm really nervous about having it connect to my bank account. Seems to me that MINT would be a hacker's dream.

I then started with budgetsimple.com, but there are no such things as parent and child categories, so I quickly ended up with 20+ categories to track.

Now I'm checking out YNAB. I really like the free budget webinars (http://www.youneedabudget.com/support/training-and-education). I'll sign up later and give it a try.

As far as I can tell...Mint may be great and Quicken may be great, but YNAB and Budgetsimple have great personal customer support. They'll actually help me set up a budget and answer my stupid questions directly.

Now I'm off to watch a 1 hour webinar on YNAB
