Home Finance for Dummies


Product Description

Amazon.co.uk Review

Do you run your home finances or do they run you? If your finances are spiralling out of control you might want to try Home Finance for Dummies, a program that allows you to efficiently manage your accounts in pounds.

To help get your finances back under control, you simply create an account by specifying an initial balance, then you fill in various categories of spending on the budget sheets. The software will automatically subtract or add all your expenses and receipts.

You can also indicate the limit that you don't want to exceed for specific categories. So you can cap the amount you might spend each month on going out to the cinema or the total you spend on shopping. If you go over that amount, an actual alarm will sound.

By using this handy program, your initial balance will increase or decrease according to the debits or credits that you enter. Overall this program will help to bring greater clarity to your spending and will let you clearly see what your spending patterns are. At the end of each month you can easily print off a monthly record of what you have spent in each of your agreed categories. You can print the figures out in a colourful pie chart which will give you a good idea of how your bank manager is likely to be feeling. --Justin Hunt

2.0 out of 5 stars Home Finance for Dummies Review, 7 Feb 2003
You get what it says on the packet. This programme offers you only the very basic tools for home finance. Everything goes automatically and this severely restricts its usefulness. There are very few functions you can change or influence and this means that you cannot adapt the programme to your own needs.
For instance, there is no cut and paste function so you have to re-enter your expenses if you want to use the same data in different spreadsheets. The programme automatically saves the spreadsheets and making back-ups or duplicating or renaming files is not possible.
The averages per month for the different categories (you can add new ones to the list provided) of expenses and receipts are calculated automatically but you cannot select parts of your spreadsheet for the calculations or compare different months or years without creating a different spreadsheet for each period. The two graphs provided are badly designed and give little usefull information. You cannot alter the graphic lay-out or functions.
"Home Finance for Dummies" saves you adding up and calculating monthly averages, but if you are looking for more than that, you'd better be smart enough to buy another home finance programme.
