Warning to Quicken users . . .

2018 will go to a subscription based model with a yearly subscription required. The kicker is unlike old versions you will not be able to even input manually when it runs out! (some say this is true and some say not)

Quicken has been pissing me off lately. It used to be awesome. My biggest gripe is with the online account updates. It doesn't always work and when it does it doesn't always pull all the transaction. I guess I will need to find some alternative but I doubt anything would pull in 20 years of history.

At one point I had switched to MS Money and liked it better then Quicken. Then MS Money got killed off.

MS Money Sunset is still available and still works with downloaded OFX and QIF/QFX files.

Fuck Quicken!

Acccording to https://www.topfinancialtools.com/qu...on-information Quicken Starter will go read-only after the subscription expires. That's terrible.
