Software Search

I’ve been on the lookout for free or low cost software to replace some of the big name bloated programs that I’ve used in the past. I’ll probably stick with my graphics software but I’m very interested in finding more streamlined budgeting software.

Most that I’ve used has entirely too many features for me. In the past, I just ignored what I didn’t need but why bog down my computer with unesscessary stuff?

I’d like to be able to enter all my monthly expenses, enter total for recurring payments, and have a way to check off anything that’s paid. I also need to be able to add income at non-regular times since our paydays are not on a regular schedule.

That’s it. That’s all I want. I just need to keep track of what comes in and what goes out. Is there software that does only that?

The program Gnucash is great for linux users. I’ve had a lot of success with it. Not feature bloated but highly configurable. It sounds like exactly what you are looking for.

I’ll check that out. I do have one machine running Linux so that could work. Thanks!
