At some point I may have to get the newest version of Quicken [View all]

Two years ago, when my new Mac and my old Quicken would not talk, I got the newer version. It is supposed to be a "subscription" renewable every year for around $35. Not for me. For my household expenses the older version is adequate.... As long as Apple and Quicken again will not play games..

So opening the program requires few extra step - skipping the "upgrade proposals" to go directly to the program.

But now I decided to generate the income tax related report: income, taxes, medical expenses - in case they exceed the standard deductions. Quicken allows one to designate specific categories as "tax related." Problem is, the tax system changed two years ago, and has been going further changes this year as far as forms go.

So... depending, of course, on the November elections, will wait a few more years to see how the tax reporting system gets shaken, again.

Between Quicken and my running Excel spreadsheet I think that I am ready to visit TurboTax.
