I Tried Qapital's App, and It Wasn't What I Thought It'd Be. Top Story - November 2018.
I need to work on being more fiscally stable. Being a writer often means having to weather the highs and lows of a gig economy, and in many cases, you may need to save money in the high times just to make ends meet in the low.

Best Books for People Who Want to Learn About Stocks
I remember the first time I decided to start investing. I downloaded Robin Hood, saw a bunch of charts that showed prices to me, made a bet, and watched my money turn to nothing. It was not a good move, though it did look like it was doing well once before disappearing completely.

10 Savings Apps You Need to Know About
I remember the last time my car broke down. I was living paycheck to paycheck, and the ball joint of my Mitsubishi Lancer had snapped. It cost around $900 cash to fix. Had my mother not bailed me out, I'd have been out of luck and out of a job.

An Author Attempts Acorns
If it's a stereotype that writers are bad investors, I suppose I’ve gone ahead and enforced it. Since there are so many apps that advertise making micro-investing easy, I figured I’d give it a whirl and try squirreling some money away into investments.

10 Best Credit Cards for Students 2018
I remember when I got my first credit card back when I was in college. It was a crappy little thing that I signed up for so that I could get a free balloon. That credit card had no rewards, high interest rates, and also was just pretty darned annoying. Thankfully, I paid it off and closed it in time.

The Investopedia Simulator
In the beginning of April, after WNY was slammed with snow, I discovered that Investopedia has a simulator that teaches those who are willing to learn, how to trade in the stock market. Usually I use MarketWatch or TD Ameritrade to look at stock performances. Excited about finding a game for stock trading, I was happy I didn't have to download the App to my already over-filled phone in order to play the Investopedia simulator!

Best Mutual Funds for Every Budget
Once, not too long ago, being able to invest in mutual funds meant that you had a lot of extra money to spend. They were investment vehicles that had serious requirements, including an initial investment of thousands of dollars and the promise that you wouldn't touch them.

Best Apps for First-Time Investors
Two of which serving as among the best online brokers for stock trading in 2018 (Robinhood and Motif), the following apps have initiated a new era of stock trading and investing, as a whole. Linking brokerage accounts, accessing retirement options, micro investing and far more is all acquirable through the use of the following apps. Especially for beginning investors, these platforms make it easy for you to track balances with bank account connectivity, plan for the future in 401k options, and to simply optimize your overall portfolio, plus loads of other investing decisions are opened, which can almost become daunting in their scope (which is why most of them do the investing for you, a sigh of relief for brand new investors).

Best Apps to Help You Manage Your Stocks
These forms of downloadable content are not only some of the best apps to upgrade your phone, they're some of the most sophisticated, intelligent, and eye-opening applications within the banking and financing world of tech. You might be cautions about preforming especially dangerous and highly privatized business transactions through your cellular data, but while they may not be the most popular password management apps for your business, they make your everyday endeavors (no matter if they are business or casual interests) a simplistic and utter breeze.
