I need to start saving. ING Direct’s savings options look pretty good—no fees or minimums [Quicken or Microsoft Money. I’ve been sort of using a simple Excel sheet mostly to keep track of my bills and make sure i have enough to pay them. But it’s too manual. And only a narrow view of all my finances. Not quite the comprehensive monthly budget i’d like.
Update:
And with a little searching, i found the answer to my only remaining question: “Can i direct deposit into an ING Direct savings account?” This Consumerism Commentary article links to ING’s routing number and other info, necessary for direct deposits.
