    It is quicken like, but written entirely in Java. So assuming your iMac can run Java apps (if it is OS X, then you can with no problem) you can run this app. Best part about being Java, if you ever switch from Mac to PC and then later to Unix/Linux this app will still work

    Quicken. Everyone complains and compares themselves to Quicken. Despite all it faults (and there are many) it is still undenaibly the standard for the managing personal finance. Lots of resources avaliable to help figuring out how to use it.

    The changes on a year by year basis are fairly minimal but Intuit stops providing online support after about 5 years. So if you are on a budget, go to eBay and buy the 2005 or 2006 version instead of the new in the store 2007 version.

Spending outdoors of the budget ought to require important determination and evaluate what accessible go back/reward it may provide you. once you've cost reductions or you spent below the budget, do not spend it only because you've been in a position to save. somewhat, set it aside or possibly placed it in yet another account. on the precise of the day, that's outstanding to work out particularly funds which represents what you've kept because of you sturdy funds administration. chuffed spending!
