    Intuit should try to create something new, as opposed to ride TurboTax for its revenues! They could make a banking app to replace what they did to Mint!

      I interviewed with Intuit a few months after they purchased mint. When I told them I was using it, they all pretty much said they bought mint to prevent them from taking their market share. Their entire business model is restricted access and lobbying.

        But also gross.
