2) Alternative headline "Mint's users now include not only affluent early-adopters, but people with very slightly lower incomes, too!"

If a drop of 6% is $300 (according to the article), the average mint.com user is spending $5,000 a month. That seems way too high to begin with, and secondly, a suspicously round number. Perhaps all the numbers were rounded off when told to the reporter ?

This is scary. I would never store my finances in a random small start-up already doing data mining.

It is already too much to have banks and credit card corporations doing it.

January is a heavy vacation month...?
