 <li>For information about why I thought it was a good idea in 2014, read <a href="https://blog.za3k.com/making-my-finances-public/">a blog post about it</a>. </li>
-<li>I use a debit card for most things, because it includes automatic logging. Even prepaid gift cards give you access to their logs these days, which I think is great.</li>
-<li>My bank then provides access to my history through their online portal. I rarely look at this directly except to see scanned checks. Instead, I hooked up <a href="https://www.mint.com">Mint.com</a>, which integrates with most banks, and can give a combined report in a common format. That's where the CSV export is from.</li>
-<li>I used to have an automatic export, but Mint broke it. So (among other reasons) my data won't be updated any more, and you only get data up to 2016</li>
-<li>I mostly look through the file by hand, although I experimented with <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Treemapping">tree mapping</a> software to visualize categories over a particular time spans. I never finished it.</li>

+<li>I mostly looked through the CSV file by hand, although I experimented with <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Treemapping">tree mapping</a> software to visualize categories over a particular time spans. I never made a very polished version. I did make some charts, both on the computer and grid paper.</li>
 <li>I really wish grocery stores would itemize reciepts back to the bank or at least a QR code. It's available by law in Russia. I keep and scan my old receipts to cross-reference them. I also check against email invoices, paypal, amazon, ebay, etc. I can tell you it's worth archiving this stuff NOW if you want it in five years--most of it is impossible to get now, even online orders for sites that are still up.</li>

+<li>I've switched to keeping records by hand in 2019, which deals with invoice/receipt line-items.</li>
