I just use Excel spreadsheets to keep track of my checking accounts. I have
developed a check spreadsheet that calculates everything and makes it easy
to balance my checkbook. It is not automatically filled in. I would rather
manually enter transactions and then match against the bank each month. I
don't just trust the bank!
I have used this format since 1995, on a Mac back when I had sight. I can
post the blank spreadsheet to DropBox if anyone is interested.
Is that the level of looking at expenses you are talking about? There are
many online websites that can track all of your accounts mostly
automatically for all of your accounts and investments. The most popular
site is mint.com. It is a free service. However, they probably have
additional features and investment broker options as well. I think this is
now owned vby Intuit. I find this kind of creepy! They even have mobile
apps that display your net worth calculated constantly and displayed on your
phone.

on things that matter.

Excel is a beautiful program and if you really want to use it, Freedom
Scientific has a number of tapes which are great for learning how to work
with the program. After listening to the tapes you can do amortization
schedules, budgets and other spreadsheets. Don't allow the program to
intimidate you.

Mitch,
Do you have Excel? If so, I've found it just as easy to make
your own spreadsheet for this purpose. Very powerful and
JAWS friendly

Hi all. I am looking for a program to keep track of my money
and how much I spend. I know there is money talks from afb
but I am not sure if that is the right program that I want
to use. what I am looking for is something that will keep
track of my money and how much I spend a month and then tell
me how much I have left over. Right now I have a ms word
file that I have written out where I have put in bills that
I have to pay and how much they cost a month. for instance.
rent 475 cable 50 phone 80 etc. what I am looking for though
is a program that will do this for me and then after tell me
how much I have left in my account. I of korce would like it
to be jaws friendly as well. does any one know of such a
program? many thanks. from Mich.
