    Really great intro! Thanks for this nice clear video. I have been budgeting with Excel for over 20 years, but am just now taking the leap and using an app like Mint.

    I just signed up with Mint. When I enrolled my various accounts it brought in transactions from previous months. I wish to start everything from scratch beginning with February 1st. How can I delete all of the old transactions?

    I want to budget well before I am an adult and start saving now, I am curious if the mint program will allow me to set up percentages of income for each category instead of a standard number. I do not have consistent income so I would prefer to set aside a percentage of my paycheck for each category

    Can you go back and make the budget categories retroactive? They seem "locked" to me. Also, will the budget categories carry forward each month? Thanks.

    Great instructional video, Mint should attach a link for your video especially regarding "Creating the Budget"
    If you have the time to reply., can we go back in time? I would like to go back to the beginning of 2019.

    When you 1st enter all of your financial information into Mint, how far back in time does it track your purchase transactions?Thanks,

    • @neilr8738
      @neilr8738 4 года назад

      It starts the day the you begin your budget. It does not go back to transactions from before you started your account unless you add manually.

    • @amberlindberg3435
      @amberlindberg3435 3 года назад

      @@neilr8738 it actually pulls pretty far back. I started my Mint account this morning and just added all of my accounts and it pulled transactions from before July. And I don't actually know how far it went back, but I quit clicking through the pages once I hit July. I was hoping it didn't go back that far because since I haven't correctly categorized all of those transactions, it shows my income to be WAY off in the positive. (I wish! Ha!) Anyway, just wanted to let you know. If you know how to stop that from happening and just start for September, please let me know!!

    What do you do in a situation where you pay for the bill on your credit card and people either venmo you or give you cash? How do account for this, because you may be over the 'food' budget but in reality, you're still on track.

    I am confused on Super and Sub Categories. As Auto and Auto-gas. Say I assign $50 to Auto-gas. Do I also assign $50 to Auto? Do the subcategories roll up? Would I be double budgeting?

    Question: you go to Target and buy items that apply to multiple labels like food, personal Phil, auto maintenance, personnel shared etc all as one bank transaction. How to you label that debit from your account?

    Is it possible to divide the budget by percentage? I have different sources of income and wanted to budget this way. Is it possible for mint to divide it automatically? Let's say 10% goes to personal, 30% to bills and utilities.. Etc..

    1:10 At this point you're moving your mouse pointer as if you're reading from the screen, but I don't see what you're saying.
    I seem to be experiencing a problem that keeps me from watching past 1 minute 40 seconds. I hope to be back when that is solved.

    I am in search of a good app. But I'd like to paint a scenario. What if you were to buy a coffee from Starbucks with your debit card from your bank account and as your card swipes you get a ding on your phone. That ding notifies you that you have made a purchase and it would ask you what category you would like to put it. You answer the question and lock your phone and it automatically goes into the category you have created. Does this app offer something like this?
