Money Management

Learning how to manage one's money and becoming financially intelligent is an important part of most people's lives. I've found a few resources to help:

The Simple Dollar
Trent has focused his blog on a variety of topics related to money management: eating cheaply, investing, budgeting, debt management and loads more. He also has a section at the top of his blog called "31 days to fix your finances" which seems loosely based on the extremely influential book Your Money or Your Life.

Wesabe
This is an online program that once you register can automatically track your spending by reading your online bank statements. It also tells you about better deals on credit cards and has a host of features to give you info on how you spend your money.

ClearCheckbook.com
Another online program that you can use to track your spending. You cannot set it up to automatically download info from your bank account so this may be a good choice for those uncomfortable with a website having that kind of access.
