On the other hand, using Hydrogen would encourage people to ride very safely.

I hope that's a dummy... 'cause if he isn't, the helment didn't work!

You set up an account on their site. Then you create your "envelopes". You get 10 for free, (I pay the $3/month to get 20). You label them eg. groceries, insurance, eating out, etc. You assign them an amount, then when you get paid, you "distribute" money to all the envelopes. As you use the money, you enter the…

We started using EEBA (Easy Envelope Budget Assistant) in the fall - super straightforward to use and it's really helped us keep to a budget. You just have to be diligent in entering all your transactions. It's available on Android and iPhone, and I can't recommend it enough.
