I. Project Description
The project, named WealthGuardian, is a comprehensive personal financial management
application designed to help individuals monitor and manage their daily economic activities.
WealthGuardian was chosen as the name because it emphasizes the app’s role in guarding and
optimizing users’ wealth through insightful financial monitoring and guidance. The core functionalities of
WealthGuardian include budget tracking, which allows users to set monthly spending limits and track
day-to-day expenses to ensure they stay on budget. The investment tracker enables users to monitor
their portfolio performance, providing insights on stocks, bonds, and other investments (although this
part may be an overreach on the dev’s part).
Additionally, WealthGuardian offers a savings goal tracker that motivates and assists users in
achieving their short and long-term saving objectives by setting incremental landmarks. Finally, the
application integrates a debt management plan that offers tailored advice on reducing liabilities and
improving financial health. Overall, the aim of WealthGuardian is to offer an intuitive and accessible
interface that empowers users to enhance their financial literacy and achieve greater economic security.
