YNAB comes out on top for me

For me, YNAB is the best financial software solution. I have (and am currently comparing) 4-5 different well known programs, and YNAB comes out on top for me.

YNAB is life-changing

YNAB has - genuinely - changed my life. Following a divorce out of the blue, I was terrified of the financial implications and YNAB has enabled me to take control of my spending and my relationship with money more generally. I now feel in control, spend money on treats without any guilt or anxiety and am feeling more secure about my financial future

I love YNAB

I love YNAB. It's wonderfully comprehensive. Covering budgeting, loan payoff calculations and visualizations of your progress (and projected progress), net worth, credit card payments, savings goals, and it has the ability to review previous months of spending (that can be filtered by time and category - with visuals!!). YNAB also has an awesome YouTube channel of personality-filled videos for those learning the software and how to use it well and customize it. They make budgeting fun! YNAB ...
