Instead of a keys in a dict, you should think about making a financeRecord
class to hold the data. Don't worry about methods at first, just use it to
hold your data if nothing else:
class financeRecord:
def __init__(self):
self.hourlyRate= float(raw_input("Hourly rate: "))
self.overtimeMult = float(raw_input("By which sum is your rate multiplied
for overtime hours? "))
#etc
financeLogs = {}
myDetails = None
options = raw_input((menu))
while options != 'quit':
if options == 'details':
myDetails = financeRecord()
else
#whatever else you're doing....
Unless there is some really good reason you need text keys, this is a lot
more natural.
