The plan is to make it:
- A source of financial news.
- A set of tools to help manage your money and achieve your goals.
- A community.
Financial News
We will be adding news feed reader (this will likely become the front page of PennyMinder). We want to scour the net for the best and most useful collection of news feeds as they pertain to personal finances. And eventually, I hope we can offer some original content.
Tools
PennyMinder the tool will still be here and will be getting some much needed (I need them :-) new features and will still be an important part of the site.
I also have some ideas for other tools that will be useful on their own, but will integrate with the existing tool nicely. A simple mortgage and loan calculator would be nice too.
Community
And last (but not least), I want this to be a community where we share our experiences (good and bad) to help everyone learn from the past achieve all of our varied financial goals. There will be user forums for tips, advice, stories etc as well as a link directory of sites, tools and books that prove useful to the community.
The new PennyMinder is going to be released in stages over the next month or so, stay tuned for further updates.
