Mint is a powerful and free budgeting app. It’s my favorite way to track our expenses.

Personal Capital (Tracking Net Worth)
The best financial app for tracking your net worth and investments. They also have free tools for retirement planning.
Chase (Travel Credit Cards)
My favorite credit cards for accumulating travel rewards, which can be used for free flights and hotels.
Vanguard (Investing)
My top recommendation for investing, the bulk of our net worth is in low-fee index funds with Vanguard.
M1 Finance (Stock Portfolio)
Build a custom portfolio of stocks for free, with no trading or maintenance fees.

Home and renters insurance, sign up and get a quote within minutes. I signed up and cut my renters insurance rate in half! Claims can be made directly through the app and are paid out almost instantly.
Lively (Health Savings Account)
Health savings accounts are one of the most powerful accounts available, as you can use it as an extra tax-advantaged retirement account. Check and see if you’re eligible to sign up for an HSA through Lively today.
SeatGeek (Sports and Concerts Tickets)
My favorite way for buying cheap sports and concert tickets is through SeatGeek. No hassle, no fees.
Bluehost (Blog Hosting)
An affordable blog hosting service that I personally use for Spills Spot. If you’re thinking of starting a blog, I would recommend BlueHost’s basic hosting for only $3.95 per month.
Rover (Dog-sitting)
Whenever we travel we use Rover to make sure our dog is well taken care of while we’re away.
AirBnb (Lodging)
We love staying at Airbnb’s when we travel due to the cheaper cost, flexibility, and unique charm.
