I got downloaded transaction data like - $4.95" and wondered why my bank was swearing at me, rather than telling me I spent $4.95 at Jack In the Box on the corner of Walker and Jenkins then plotting it on a map. Painting slow.Īccounts open and closed, banks changed account numbers, banks changed OFX servers, things broke. I tried culling the data, to include just the last 10, then 5, then 2 years. Remember I've got Money files with data going back decades, plural. Oh! A new version of money! It must be 365 days better! I paid my $49.95, then got the Deluxe the next year for $79.95, then the super Deluxe Business Edition. Then came the fancy stuff, and the advertising and upselling.

Even though I took "Home Economics" in school - we were all required to learn how to balance a checkbook - it never made sense to me why I should have to reconcile how much I THINK I have with how much the Bank knows I have. I used QuickBooks under DOS, and ComputerServe Finance under OS/2. I've always avoided checks, preferring to do as much as I can electronically. I've been banking online as long as I've been online.
