BluPeak Weighs in on Your Favorite Personal Budgeting Apps
Summary
The inflation we’ve been experiencing recently has convinced even some of the most budgeting-averse to try to change their ways, in hopes of offsetting higher costs for everything from food and fuel, to rent and travel. The great news is that getting a solid handle on your personal budget now will pay big dividends long after today’s inflation is in our rearview mirror. “Getting finances in order and preparing a budget to stick to is a popular New Year’s resolution,” said Margarita Guerra, Senior Vice President and Chief Financial Officer at BluPeak Credit Union. It also offers a robust suite of tools, calculators and tips, along with a bill negotiator called Billshark® that aims to lower your payments on phone, cable and a handful of other services. Similar to YNAB, PocketGuardTM is really focused on giving you tips and alerts as you go, in hopes that real-time financial tracking will help you avoid overspending.
