  1. I noticed that you don’t have Empower/Personal Capital on this page. Do you not use or recommend that product anymore? If you aren’t using it anymore what made you change to these new tools?

    • I stopped using Personal Capital when they sold to Empower. I wanted something with less cold sales calls. Also it often had syncing issues with accounts.

      If a product is free they’re usually selling your data or you’re the product. Kubera coats a bit every year but it’s simple and comprehensive, well worth it.
