Best Strategies for using Money 2005

01-12-2005, 11:27 PM

A few of us would suggest that the best strategy WRT downloaded data is to
put your own transaction data in the way you want it and skip all of this
"effortless way" to "stop typing" nonsense.

I would say that another good strategy to using M05 is to return it and go
back to M04, but that may just be an opinion from the peanut gallery. (See
my reasons at http://umpmfaq.info/Money2005.htm, if you are interested.) Do
your own due diligence. This is a good place to begin.

I'm a new 2005 user. What I read here makes it sound like there are
quite a few problems.

It sounds like the best strategy might be to not use the automated
account updates and instead download data directly from the financial
institutions. Is the automated downloads the biggest issue with Money
or are there other features that I should stay away from?
