The 'Richie' app is a solution for Millennials by Millennials that will allow users to save towards a mutual goal to ensure everyone is on the same page with their financial requirements.
Saving for a vacation or a mutual purchase usually requires you to put money aside to ensure your portion of the funds covered, but this can quickly fail if one or more participants fall behind on their saving. That's where the 'Richie' app comes in to help by letting each person see how much others have saved towards their collective goal. The funds are not shared, but rather create a more social experience when it comes to finances and saving to ensure everyone is on the same page.
