Greetings MMM forum,
Has anyone out there set up a dashboard using an expense-tracking website like Mint or Personal Capital to track expenses for two people using the same dashboard?
Right now we are tracking expenses using Mint and then on a monthly basis inputting data into a spreadsheet.
This is giving us some really good / detailed data about where our money is going and about how we are spending our money and so on. However, the process is time consuming because we have to manually input data from our individual mint accounts into a single sheet so that we can then see what our spending / saving looks like as a couple.
We are in a phase right now where we are trying to bring our spending levels down in multiple categories and to set goals and so on, so it is important for us to track things closely right now.
We are hoping to make this process, which we are doing on a monthly basis, as efficient as possible so that we can quickly identify areas of opportunity and then move on with our day.
From what I can see on the Personal Capital website, it looks like it is possible to set up a combined dashboard that pulls in spending data from two different people. Has anyone used this? Would this be a good way for me to achieve my goals?
Any other advice or suggestions that folks have?
Thanks!!
