A Day in the Life of a Retiree Using Mint (Dead)

Social Security deposited on the 3rd. Pension on the 15th. You need to cover the mortgage, Medicare supplement ($198/month), prescriptions (Part D copays vary), property taxes (escrowed), and the electric bill that doubled this winter. Your Quicken stopped syncing with the bank after the last update. You've been using it for 15 years but now they want $55/year to keep it working. Your grandson mentioned Mint but apparently that's gone now too. You just want something that works, doesn't change every year, and doesn't charge you forever.

Now add $0/month to Mint (Dead) on top of that. Every month, another $0 gone for software that does not solve half these problems.

FAQ

Can Nexa really replace Mint (Dead) for retirees?

For solo retirees and small teams (1-5 people), yes. Nexa includes invoicing, scheduling, CRM, time tracking, task management, and full accounting. Mint (Dead) covers some of this but charges monthly forever. Mint (Dead) may be better if you have a large team (10+) or need enterprise-specific features.

How hard is it to switch from Mint (Dead)?

Export your data as CSV, import into Nexa. Most retirees are fully switched in 1-2 days. You can run both in parallel until you're confident — cancel Mint (Dead) only when you're ready.

What happens to my Mint (Dead) data?

Export everything before canceling. Nexa imports client lists, invoices, and expenses from CSV. Your data stays yours — unlike Mint (Dead), where losing access means losing everything.
