Thinks s/he gets paid by the post
I'm posting it here because I don't want to hijack the vent on Quicken thread.
I'm wondering how many of us make full use of our bank apps. I've been reading what quicken can do for people, and I used to use MSmoney before bank apps became so all inclusive so I'm familiar with paid apps. But I realize that everything they want to do through Quicken I can do on my USAA app.
If I want to keep track of all of the checks, online payments, investments in both Schwab (only investment firm I use), future transactions, budgeting, goals including paying off a debt - retirement - buying a home - travel, send or receive money from either a company or individual, all of that is available in my bank app without charging me any extra money. And I cannot imagine how USAA is the only place that does this.
So what is the advantage to having an outside program do what my bank does for free? Isn't that just double work?
