Walking the Thin Line: Apps that Help You Avoid the Trap of Overspending
Consistently spending more than you intend—or can afford—can have an impact on your financial future. Whether it’s buying on impulse, using credit too often, or not having enough savings, there are a plethora of reasons why you might spend more than you anticipate.
Having a budget and tracking your expenses against that budget can help you manage your spending so you stay on track to achieve your short- and long-term financial goals. Here are five budget apps and personal finance tools you can use to help you keep your spending in line:*
Having a budget and tracking your expenses against that budget can help you manage your spending so you stay on track to achieve your short- and long-term financial goals. Here are five budget apps and personal finance tools you can use to help you keep your spending in line:*
- Mint
The market leader in budgeting management, Mint syncs with your bank accounts, retirement accounts, credit cards and more. The app automatically updates and categorizes your transactions, providing you a snapshot of your spending in real time. With Mint, you can track your bills, create budgets and receive suggestions based on your spending. You can also check your free credit score as often as you like, and get tips to help improve it. - Prism
This free app offers an easy way to organize and pay your bills by bringing them all together on one platform. - PocketGuard
This budgeting app links to all of your financial accounts and helps you track your spending against your budget throughout the months. It also has a feature that helps you find opportunities to save on recurring monthly service costs such as your phone and internet bills. - Albert
Albert keeps track of all of your accounts and provides actionable recommendations for improving your financial health. The app automatically creates a budget based on your spending habits, bills and income, and sets aside a portion of your funds in a savings account. For a monthly fee, you can use the Albert Genius feature to text human experts for personalized advice on topics like saving for a goal, paying down debt or investing. - You Need a Budget (YNAB)
Instead of relying on traditional budgeting buckets, YNAB helps you build a budget based on your income, with the goal of giving every dollar a “job”. These “jobs” include everything from living expenses and savings to investments and debt payments. The basic idea is that, by leaving no dollar unaccounted for, you will need to think about every dollar you spend. YNAB offers a free trial for 34-days but then requires a monthly fee.
As your needs and financial goals become more complex, you may find that apps and online tools are not enough. Consider reaching out to a Financial Advisor who is committed to understanding your unique financial challenges and aspirations and helping you achieve the future you envision.
*Morgan Stanley has not evaluated these apps and tools.

Tips To Navigate Your Parents’ Evolving Needs and Finding Balance in the Chaos
A multitude of economic, social and cultural factors have given rise to many middle-aged Americans providing financial, emotional and physical support for their young children, adult children and parents at the same time, often with multiple generations living under one roof. Caring for children while caring for parents, while also trying to keep your own head above water, is a life masterclass in juggling. Needs are constantly competing for attention and resources, often leaving you stuck in the middle.
One of the main concerns facing the Sandwich Generation is: “How do I plan for my own future – my own retirement needs – when I’m constantly balancing the immediate needs of my family?” By addressing the three questions below, you can start to find balance in the chaos, while making sure your own financial future is secure.
One of the main concerns facing the Sandwich Generation is: “How do I plan for my own future – my own retirement needs – when I’m constantly balancing the immediate needs of my family?” By addressing the three questions below, you can start to find balance in the chaos, while making sure your own financial future is secure.
What Are My Needs?
Flight attendants tell you to put on your own oxygen mask first before helping others and this is no different. The first step is to create a personal budget.
- Determine Your Income. Specifically, you’ll want to determine your average monthly income. If your income varies by month, estimate by averaging the past six to 12 months.
- Evaluate Your Emergency Fund. Keeping a stash of cash on hand in case of an emergency is essential. Your emergency fund should be separate from your day-to-day cash, and if you can, put away enough to cover at least three to six months’ of expenses.
- Plan for Savings & Surplus. If you have surplus in your budget, it may be challenging to decide what to do with it. As a dual caregiver, there are an unending number of things you could do with that money, but the most important thing is to pay yourself first. A good rule of thumb is to save for your retirement ahead of your children’s college funds and your parents’ care needs. Be sure to pay off all your debt and evaluate your insurance needs.
What Are My Children’s Needs?
One of the biggest expenses of raising a child is education. If they’re young, consider whether private school tuition is going to be necessary. There may also be the added expenses of books, extracurricular activities and tutors. If you can swing it without sacrificing your own retirement needs, open a 529 College Savings plan, and start investing with as little as $25 per month.
Fifty percent of young Millennials plan to move back home with their parents after college.1 In order to make this work for everyone, it’s important to set expectations. Talk through everything from rent and shared expenses to division of household chores. Don’t neglect the impact this situation will have on your own retirement goals.

Talk through everything from rent and shared expenses to division of household chores. Don’t neglect the impact this situation will have on your own retirement goals.
What Are My Parents’ Needs?
Navigating the needs of your parents can be emotional and tricky. But staying in the loop on what your parents have saved, where it is, what plans they have for the future, and who they trust as their Financial Advisor, will help protect their money and yours. You'll also be better able to make decisions on their behalf in case of an emergency.
Budgeting for your parents’ current and future needs is important. The good news is that you can use the same process you used to create your own budget. Include discussions about their desired standard of living – and what changes would need to happen, given financial constraints. Don’t forget the hard questions: How long can my parents stay in their home? Can they afford home health care? Should they live with me? What about assisted living? Additional care? These are all discussions that need to happen before a move is required.

These are all discussions that need to happen before a move is required.
Finding Balance in the Chaos
Dual caregiving comes with a lot of chaos. Don’t forget to make yourself a priority. By creating a clear picture of the needs of every generation under your care, you can map out strategies and solutions that help your entire family thrive. And if you need additional guidance on how to balance this big picture, don’t be afraid to reach out to a financial advisor for help.
1 Forbes. 50% Of Millennials Are Moving Back Home With Their Parents After College. Available at https://www.forbes.com/sites/zackfriedman/2019/06/06/millennials-move-back-home-college/. Accessed February 24, 2020.
If an account owner or the beneficiary resides in or pays income taxes to a state that offers its own 529 college savings or pre-paid tuition plan (an “In-State Plan”), that state may offer state or local tax benefits. These tax benefits may include deductible contributions, deferral of taxes on earnings and/or tax-free withdrawals. In addition, some states waive or discount fees or offer other benefits for state residents or taxpayers who participate in the In-State Plan. An account owner may be denied any or all state or local tax benefits or expense reductions by investing in another state’s plan (an “Out-of-State Plan”). In addition, an account owner’s state or locality may seek to recover the value of tax benefits (by assessing income or penalty taxes) should an account owner rollover or transfer assets from an In-State Plan to an Out-of-State Plan. While state and local tax consequences and plan expenses are not the only factors to consider when investing in a 529 Plan, they are important to an account owner’s investment return and should be taken into account when selecting a 529 plan.
Tax laws are complex and are subject to change. This information is based upon current tax rules in effect at the time this was written. Morgan Stanley Smith Barney LLC and its Financial Advisors do not provide tax or legal advice. Individuals should always check with their tax or legal advisor before engaging in any transaction involving 529 Plans, Education Savings Accounts and other tax-advantaged investments.
Investments in a 529 Plan are not FDIC-insured, nor are they deposits of or guaranteed by a bank or any other entity, so an individual may lose money. Investors should review a Program Disclosure Statement, which contains more information on investment options, risks factors, fees and expenses and possible tax consequences. Investors should read the Program Disclosure Statement carefully before investing.
