Discover the difference between "BUDGETING" and "ACCOUNTING".
Budgeting looks to the future to see that you have money to enjoy your Lifestyle!
Accounting looks back and tells the income tax people where a business has been. Accounting programs require special safeguards to guarantee that you haven't missed out on paying tax.

There are no prizes for having an unworkable budget!
