Hi, nice forum - first time posting.
I am an investor and would like to know if anyone has any alternatives to Quicken or Money? I have been using Quicken 2004 and find it darn confusing on how to use. For instance, I just moved some money out of a Roth IRA (Janus Overseas - grew a lot and my portfolio was out of balance) and bought a silver ETF with it.
You think I was doing major accounting to try to show this activity. I don't move things around much but I'll admit, maybe like a lot of investors, I have many small accounts in different places (T.Rowe Price (IRA's, Education IRA's, UTMA's), Janus, Putnam for college).
I just want the ability of a program to track my net worth, the share prices of my mutual fund(s)/ETF's, and maybe a few calculators on there. So, when I log on, I can see everything in one spot.
I am not an idiot on finances - I am a college educated man but it seems like Quicken is way too complicated for me to get them to simply show my account balances.
(or maybe I am an idiot - just a college eduated one, LOL)
I did try Money awhile back and it also seemed complex and non-user friendly.
Maybe the newer versions are better. Help me. Guide me. Show me the way.
Thanks in advance.
