I could have been more clear. The comparison to firearms was more to say it's really hard to stop people from doing things they like and want to do, even if they come at a cost to …

I was referring to "... cars aren’t allowed in major cities". In general, I don't think it's particularly controversial to say that some proponents of self-driving cars think human…

Many things are possible, but I might not like doing them. It's totally fine for someone to not want cars and not use them. But it's too far to say nobody should be using them, no …

I see where you are coming from, my dad always said the same to me. However, I personally could never think like that. I could never "sling javascript for 10 years" if I didn't lik…

Yes that’s right. Most of US bank coverage is through Yodlee. We got started with them and have stuck with them so far. Tinkered with Plaid a little but Yodlee’s per-user pricing w…

If you dislike Mint's business model and find YNAB limited, you might like Buxfer ( https://www.buxfer.com ) We have built Buxfer to cater to power users, so it has lots of powerfu…

That's awesome, Navneet! I have heard from big hedge fund managers, and seen first hand working at "cutting edge" 401K fintech companies that spreadsheets are the backoffice workho…

From the website FAQs: Will these sessions be recorded? Not at this time because we often refer to a few pages of the book via screen sharing during the meeting session. I don't kn…

Hey! I'm the founder. I have been working full-time on Buxfer for the past several years now and am 100% committed to making it the best-in-class software for the specific market s…

True, fixing mobile is slightly more involved due to the current design. But I've made a note and we will get it fixed soon!

Yeah, that's something we have received feedback about several times. The initial reasoning was something like this: 1: We didn't have MFA until we had PRIME. Generally speaking, w…

Added. Was an oversight, thanks for pointing out!

I'm the founder of Buxfer ( https://www.buxfer.com ) Forecasting is one of the strongest aspects of our product. We also provide alerts ahead of time if we can predict your account…

Founder here. Our product is very optimized for people who want to see things ahead of time. Entering stuff manually, reminders, budgets, forecasting, all the way up to retirement …

It's always immensely satisfying to hear a personal story of my work benefitting another fellow human being. Thanks for sharing!

Buxfer ( https://www.buxfer.com ) has almost all of what you mention: import (can be automated via API), automatic pull from banks, multiple currencies, backup to cloud (although i…

The desktop version has more marketing material. The mobile interface is more of a companion to the desktop. I know that's laughable in today's mobile-first world, but (a) our targ…

Buxfer ( https://www.buxfer.com ) lets you do this to a certain extent. Transactions are auto-synced, then you can add/identify your recurring bills and your budget will tell you w…

Founder here. Yes, Buxfer is still working. Social media (and marketing efforts in general) are pretty scant. Support is good though. Product updates are frequent. User feedback is…

No, Buxfer is far from dead. Ashwin had to quit for some personal reasons, nothing related to the company. So don't worry, Buxfer is very much alive and doing well :)
