Finance Friday - PocketSmith
You may remember my previous post about Mint.com. Well, if that site didn't strike your fancy, then maybe PocketSmith will. PocketSmith has many of the same benefits of Mint.com to help you with your budgeting, but with more of a focus on financial forecasting. It has some pretty neat features that show you your account balances on a calendar, to truly show you where you stand in the future. You can even forecast to see if you fix your car today, will you have enough money to get through the month. Pretty cool stuff.
