When it comes to money, the two things that matter most to Caitlin Connors are: Saving it and managing it.
"Not just living paycheck to paycheck," says Conners.
She's a 26-year-old professional living on her own, with bills to pay and goals to achieve.
"I'm looking to buy land in Puerto Rico," she says.
Caitlin uses Justthrive.com, a free personal finance management site that organizes all her finances in one place and helps her to put a savings plan together for things she may want.
"Here's my checking, how much I have in savings, how much I have on my credit card, and how much I spent on utilities, this month...$85. Food and drink was $200," she points out.
"They send me email updates and they tell me if my bank account is low or how much I should spend on my credit card," she explains. "You can see the chart of your monthly spending It automatically categorizes your credit card, which is perfect."
She's still working on her house plan, but for now Caitlin is sticking to the smaller projects and succeeding, one dollar at a time.
