4 out of 5 stars Great for updating checking account   August 22, 2010
Deb
This is great for keeping your checking account up-to-date with the bank! I gave it a 4 star because I am a Microsoft Money lover and was disappointed when they stopped making it.

This is the best replacement for Microsoft Money I have found! You can have your entries put in through the bank, or you don't have to. I like to put my own entries in, which it remembers your entries. Then, if it doesn't match up, I can always check the bank online, and find my mistake. My bank is accurate.

I am glad Quicken came out with this short version!

5 out of 5 stars New to Quicken   August 17, 2010
Stacy Nicolls
I have always used Microsoft Money. I still prefer it, but as I use the Quicken it is getting easier. It is just a matter of preference and getting use to what is available.


4 out of 5 stars Great for basic bank account work   August 16, 2010
jazznrnr
Quicken works as described. I use it only for basic bank account management and I do not use any of the import functions. Works better than MS Money.


4 out of 5 stars Simple & Semi Useful   July 30, 2010
Matt
Being a recent college grad, my father suggested I buy this program to keep track of my records. He has the top of the line version, which I wish I would have bought now. The Starter version doesn't do much more than what Microsoft Excel can do, except for categorizing your expenses. Still a good program, though. Will probably upgrad when it comes due.

Three Tips to Help Planning Retirement
By Brenda Cyr

Thinking about retirement is not usually on the top of our list of things to do. Then suddenly we reach the point in out life when retirement is close to becoming a reality. At that point, you really need help in planning your retirement. Sure, we think about it from time to time, but never take any action on our thoughts. Don't let lack of action destroy your retirement, and leave you working well into your seventies. Use these three tips to help plan your retirement and to get started today.

1. Be Realistic about Retirement. Most people don't take the time to sit down and figure out how much money they will need for their retirement. Here is an easy way to plan what you'll need for retirement. Take the amount of money you are now living on per year, and subtract the amount of money you can save once the kids move out, and you downsize to a smaller home and car. Take that amount and multiply it by how many years you think you will need to live on your savings. The average life expectancy is 80 years.

2. Make a Budget. This will be one of the biggest helpers for planning retirement finances. Take out a sheet of paper and write down all your monthly expenses. Include your utilities, credit cards, groceries, and everything that you spend money on through the month. Make sure that you add a set amount for retirement savings. The next step is to subtract this amount from your take home income. Do you have anything left over? If you do, that is excellent. You can use these savings for a rainy day account.

3. Cut Back on Expenses. You already knew this was coming. You have a budget, and know what you are spending; now it's time to see where you can cut back so you can put more money into your retirement account. You don't have to cut out all the luxuries in your life, but you might find that by renting movies more often, rather than taking the family to the theater will let you enjoy more luxuries when you retire.

These three tips will help you get started saving for your retirement. Of course, there are many resources available to help planning for retirement. There are many aspects of retirement to consider as well- your health, your social life, your leisure activities and hobbies. By following these three tips, you will be taking action to help you plan for the best retirement possible.
