What does yours look like (without your personal info of course!)?

 

[cerebusPu]

i use to use money or quicken. but i just use notepad now.

 

[HappyPuppy]

I don't keep track of my finances. If I did it would make me cry like a whipped baby.

 

[acemcmac]

I keep track, but NEVER on my computer.

 

[StageLeft]

I keep track in my head. It's got a quick and highly customizable search feature.

I used to use MS Money. Used it for 7 years. But after numerous times losing my data (backups didn't help), I gave up and now just handle everything manually. I don't use a check register, though, cause I can just look at my balance online anytime I want. I do have a forecasting worksheet in Excel, though.

Why don't you keep track of it on your computer? Did you go ahead and keep that extra money that was deposited into your account?

 

[rh71]

I just keep a checkbook and let my bank's online features keep the balancing for me.

Your link is dead BTW.

 

Paper > electronic spreadsheet.

 

[nageov3t]

I don't keep track.

I have a good idea in my head of how much money I have and which accounts the money is in. I use online banking to verify the exact numbers and to pay my bills.

Yep, Mine looks exactly like yours:
The page cannot be found
The page you are looking for might have been removed, had its name changed, or is temporarily unavailable.

Ohohohoho I just found Nocturnal's real finance journal/log for April!

Might want to cut back on those hookers or ask for a pay raise.

 

[Nocturnal]

LOL damnit, I could have sworn I took that thing down, damn you Freejack2!

basically, actual details go on individual worksheets, but the individual worksheets are summed up in the first summary worksheet.

I've used Money for about 6 years now, it's great. I charge everything I can, and it automatically downloads transactions from my credit card companies so it is very easy to keep things up to date. Bill scheduling feature is good too, easy to see what's coming up.

Wow! Almost 50% of your income goes to hookers! Dayum!
