Home financial software: time to get organised!

Hello all

I hope you can help me. I am looking to sort my finances out once and for all and am looking for software recommendations.

I use Quickbooks for the business which is fine but now want something for home.

My wife and I have the usual home requirements: mortgage, incomings, outgoings, shares and other investments etc but we also have a buy to let. Is there anything on the market that will allow me to keep track of that.

I've done some reading about MS Money 2005 (and 2006 on the USA site) but it's not mentioned.

Are there any other packages to consider other than money, now that Quicken is dead?

Any recommendations would be hugely appreciated because at the moment I've got bits and pieces or organisation spread across various online systems and I can't tie everything together.

many thanks, Crom

It might be worth setting up spreadsheets. Apart from fancy font handling tricks, they've hardly changed in basics since Viscalc and aren't difficult to set up.

The spreadsheet included in MS Money is virtually identical to the spreadsheet that was in MS Works Ver 3 which I've been using since around 1990. It came on three floppy diskettes and included a generous manual. It's straightforward and not over complicated.

Why reinvent the wheel - just set up your home accounts as a new company within quickbooks
