I put in my bank account and credit card information and I set up my budgets on the website and it keeps track of it for me.

Do you have any suggestions for what students could do? @Elliot: Thank you. I completely agree. I'm so glad I learned to budget when I was younger--it made the transition to paying my own bills so much less painful. @Robert: That’s a great idea if you can implement it.
