Microsoft Money Essentials

I recently downloaded the free software Microsoft Money Essentials that came free on my new laptop from Gateway. It seems very easy to use as it pulls all your online accounts such as your checking and savings accounts as well as your stocks. It even pulls in your credit cards. Its easy to monitor all your purchases and balances. you can even pay your bills electronically through this program. I have not used that feature yet but plan on it. It has convienient budgeting tools to help you make a budget that you can attempt to stick with even though that seems entirely impossible. I look forward to using this program a little more and see if it can help me manage my money and accounts a little better. There are more advanced versions out there by Microsoft that offer more features I may upgrade after I see if this one works for me or not.
