Hey everyone,

Just a bit about why I create this service.

Basically, I created Finimize so we, the millennials, can finally start understanding finance. Too many hours are spent forcing ourselves to read the Wall Street Journal or listening to bankers -- and we don't really understand what they're telling us and, in the case of bankers, if it is actually true. But it's important that we at least have a basic understanding of what's going on in finance, so we can manage our savings (especially in a world of basically zero interest rates on saving accounts) and somewhat understand what all these up-and-coming FinTech startups actually do (from robo advisers to lending providers).

So we built Finimize to give you a tool to de-mystify this complex world of finance. We want your finances to suit you, not the suits ;)

I would love to hear your feedback on what we're doing! You can either post it here or e-mail me at hello@finimize.com

Thanks, Max

I signed up a few weeks ago and learned a lot ever since. Easy to read & to understand, with catchy headlines and topics. I must admit that I do not read every single one though. Layout can still be improved imo, but already a fine product!
