Thrive – Online Money Management
Thrive helps you budget your money. Get your money organized and use this webapp to really control your spending and get focus on saving.
Here are some examples on how Thrive can help you:
- pay off credit card debt
Thrive will look at how you use money and help you gradually lower your spending in the areas you can save the most. Then we’ll tell you how much you need to pay on each bill to keep your debt from growing. By using the money you’ve saved to make extra payments on your credit cards each month, you’ll be on your way to be debt free. - buy a car or home
Before making a big purchase like a car or home, it’s important that you get your credit score as high as possible so you’ll get the best interest rate available. Thrive has a free credit score estimator that will help you figure out your credit score. Then we’ll give you advice to help you raise it so you get the best deal on your car or home. - save for retirement
For some of us, retirement seems far away, for others it seems too soon. Thrive will help you plan ahead by saving a little bit each month so you have enough saved for a comfortable retirement. You can even see how much the $50 you squirreled away into your IRA will be worth in 40 years (answer: $1,086).
