Budget Calendar

I just discovered a great little piece of software: Budget Calendar from MiShell Software Systems. It's available for Mac, Linux, and Windows. It's inexpensive but not cheap!

Rich and I have been talking about tracking our expenses more closely. I already make notes in a notebook. We were thinking of adding a spreadsheet to calculate types and totals.

I decided to look for a simple calendar application that I could mark with the days we go out for meals, to get an overview of what we do and how often. I found a couple of options (see Mom's Calendar for Mac OS if you want something like that.) But I also found Budget Calendar. It turns out this is what I was really looking for; I just didn't know it!

Features:

• item-by-item data entry
• click on a day to add an entry
• one-button mouse (single-click) support
• categories
• optional repeating payments
• full or summary (by category) report
• daily balance shown (when will you go over your budget?)
• multiple forecasting options
• export to Excel
• track income or outflow
• optional icons (customizable; add to the set)
• fully customizable fonts and colors

Simple. Easy to use. Elegant UI. Terrific idea. Great price. Why has no one done this before?

30-day demo available. $14.95 registration price.
