Top Investing and Budgeting Apps 2018 | Phil Town

Hey everyone, thanks for watching my video this week! Looks like the Penny app is currently unavailable, my apologies for mentioning that one – if I find another similar app I will be sure to share! In the meantime, if you need to get started investing – there's no better place to start than my must-have checklist (it's free)! http://bit.ly/2L1YCsY

Are you aware of any good software that actually analyzes your budget and provides suggestions at improvement? This would be an interesting concept to develop based on people's demographics.

Phil, opinion on M1 Finance? Seems like a great way to invest. No fees, can buy partial shares, auto-investing (which I really like because the ACTION of investing is probably the biggest key), and auto-portfolio balancing (buying the parts of your portfolio that are low). I don't see any drawbacks, do you?

Qapital it’s a savings and investing app! I love it!

Have you seen Personal Capital?! I love that app!

Hi Mr Town, now today in Quebec city the cannabis is legalized, could it be a good part of investing oppurtuniy?

Robinhood is great investing app!

Hi, are these apps work only USA or work any country?

Hey Phil,
Can you recommend any such apps for Indian markets as well?

mint is a great budgeting app

IQ options. Is it good?

How do I get to the tradStation from your site? I clicked on every page and could not find the link.

Phil, do you still recommend TDAmeritrade for an online broker starting out or would Tradestation or InteractiveBrokers be better?

hi Phil, what do you think about "Robinhood" app

Thanks for sharing. Low-tech guy here who could use some leads like these.

Hi Phil, those are great apps, seeking alpha is one of my favorites, really love it.
What do you think about investing.com and stockflare? The two that I use most for analyzing is investing.com and seeking alpha.
Great video.

Can you do an interview with Dave remedy? (he love mutual funds)

Robinhood App is amazing

Hi Phil, thanks for the wealth of information. The app I'm currently using is Robinhood.

I feel like acorns is the exact opposite of what Rule number #1 is teaching. Not sure if I understand how acorn works, but doesn't it invest your spare change automatically? regardless of the price of your favorite stocks??

Personal Captial, Wealthfront, Sigfig, they are both nice tools for personal finance.

great video as always sir

How to know which method to use for intrinsic value calculation? I mean the one based on book value or the one based on DCF?

I use Stash. Its similar to Acorns, but you control where the funds go.

Phil I dont see the link for trade station on the rule 1 website

No idea if this will actually reach you, but I’m interested and would love to know what you think about the usage of “Forex” and “Robinhood”.

I feel like you left out robinhood, personal capital, Charles schwab, cnn money streem, blomberg, MarketWatch, and last but not least the cash app from square and stash

trade station has no commission trading for veterans with their “Salute Program”.

I also like Robin Hood and M1.

I like Personal Capital, before I liked Mint but I find it disorganized so I switched to Personal Capital. It’s an app that keeps track of all my accounts in one place instead of going from website to website, it’s all in one place. I like it!

Mint is a great budgeting app that I use nearly everyday.

It helps you set a monthly budget and tracks all of your finances from your credit cards, loans, etc.

Mint is owned by Intuit, and I’ve recommended it to all my peers. Check it out sometime.

Hey Phil, robinhood app offers free commission trading on the stock market. I love it! I am currently waiting for an opportunity to load up the truck! If anyone is interested, then why not join Robinhood and we'll both get a stock like Apple, Ford, or Sprint for free. Make sure you use my link. http://share.robinhood.com/jeremyt59

Really surprised didn't pick up Robinhood or Simply Wall St. Both good ones IMO

Are any of these endorsements sponsored or they independent opinion?

Seeking Alpha is a complete useless rubbish. Just a bunch of goons trying to manipulate stocks in their favor. Never listen to so called "analysts". If they actually knew something useful, they wouldn't need a job.

M1 Finance

I invest spare change in acorns also I utilize ck to monitor my credit thank you phil always learning with your blogs

The Penny App is discontinued. Mint is a good alternative that I've used for almost 10 years. Also, Fidelity Rewards Visa Signature Card
earns unlimited 2% cash-back into a brokerage account among other investment options. This would address your concern of having to use Acorn and investing in Mutual Funds. Also, I'm surprised you did not mention the Robin Hood App for first time users, no commission charges and roller over from another brokerage account for free. Opinions are my own.

Hey Phil,
Though I don't follow his investing advice per say, I've used Dave Ramsey's Every Dollar App that allows you to set a specific budget and connect to your bank accounts.
Hope this helps others.
Thank You for your awesome channel and hope you will come back to Montreal sometime in the near future! ??

First get your budgeting sorted. Once you have that down you'll have spare change to start investing and get your money working for you, and not the other way round!

So useful! Thanks for uploading!
