I’m trying to find a good basic financial planning software program that can help me keep up with household accounts and expenses. I would also like to learn about (beginner level) investing. I am looking for a software program or programs that can do this that other people like and have tried successfully. I’ve read reviews of various programs on a few major consumer sites and I find myself more confused than when I started. I need to balance the checkbooks, do taxes, calculate interest, watch regular payments and try some beginning investments. I’d really appreciate any ideas and direction you can point me in. Thank you!
