I'm about to switch from Quicken, which I've used since my Apple IIGS days, to MS Money.

What, you expected something different, I am an accountant, after all <grin>.

Plus I've been tempted to write a thread title like that for ages.

ps - I bought TaxCut today and Money came for free (after rebate) ...

Must be shopping at Staples. I have used Kiplingers tax cut for years. I like the program lots. Keeps me legal every time.

No comment on MS money. Never used it. Probably never will.




BTW,If thats a huge change in the way you run your life, you must lead a very simple life.;) hehehe j/k :D

Tripleshot - Nope, Best Buy had a sale going. Got a new 30 gig hard drive as well. I switched to Taxcut last year because they were less expensive and included a state return. Review say they're the same level as Turbotax.

Yo_Ma-Ma - All the reviews I have read over the last two years say that MS Money has caught up to Quicken. I think they're both around the same level. There was a deal to get MS Money standard with the purchase of Taxcut. My wife actually picked the items up and she bought MS Money Deluxe. I'll get $35 back, but it'll still cost me $25. I may take it back. I was only going to change because I've bought basic/basic/deluxe of Quicken on a three year cycle twice (I've used Quicken longer than just 6 years). I like to see if &quot;deluxe&quot; has become any better, basic has been ok every year. I was on a &quot;basic&quot; year, and the Deluxe version of Quicken would be less expensive and basic MS Money would be free. Most of what the &quot;Deluxe&quot; versions offer I can do in my sleep (maily build a retirment plan or save for college).

The good thing is that my bank account, my credit card, and my brokerage account all allow direct downloads into both Quicken and Money.

vi_edit - registering as a Democrat would be a big change, I think voter fraud is a felony (not a US citizen yet). Actually, the Democrats don't seem to mind people not being citizens <grin>.
