Quicken for FREE



Okay, so when I bought my computer it had this service on it and I just realized it was free to everyone. I love Quicken, I just refuse to pay money to manage money so I haven't had it. But this service is free. It isn't totally comprehensive, but it does the job if you are looking for a simple way to track expenses or keep up with your budget. From the link just click on "Start now. It's FREE" and it really is free. My favorite features are the budget tracker and how the tracking is customizable (that's way better than what my bank offers online.) Ask me questions if you want to before you join, but I'm telling you, I love it.

So, if you don't have software already and you don't need the fancy investment management and retirement plan get the free stuff. You can link it to all of your accounts and they will refresh when you sign in - it tracks all of your spending (regardless of which card you use) in the same place. And, if you like to have it in Excel, you can download it to Excel easy as pie. I used to use the Wells Fargo "Spending Report" but it was not customizable at all...so that's what makes me love quicken so much. Check it out.

Sorry this sounds like an advertisement, I just wanted to pass on FREE and HELPFUL. Enjoy!
