Keeping on top of your finances requires near-constant work. Whether it’s getting more for your money or just paying routine bills on time, it’s difficult to understand where your money is going when you don’t have your eye on it. It can be even more of a challenge figuring it out when there are roommates, friends or family also splitting the monthly bills.

Covering everything from personal budgeting to portfolio management, these apps are easy, intuitive and put your accounts into easy-to-read charts and graphs.

 I like tools but unfortunately you do have to be fairly organized to get the best out of them, which I'm not. It suits me fine to just muddle through as usual for now. :)

 I think Mint is an excellent resource and unlike some of these, they have been around long enough that you could trust them to not vanish in the night. Thank you Kay! :)

 I like online tools much better than paper ones. Paper's too easy to get lost if you shuffle between different desks and computers like I do. When it's online I can access it from anywhere. :)
