If you have multiple checkbooks or credit cars, real estate investments, stocks and bonds, etc., your finances have probably outgrown simple paper and pencil bookkeeping.

If you perform over 100 business transactions a month (checks, credit cards, etc.) it will take literally thousands of accounting steps to put your finances in order. At each step, there is a chance of introducing a miscalculation or making a simple bookkeeping error that can cost you time and money later.

Smart Money was designed to be a product with the power and performance inherent in business accounting products, but tailored for personal use. Unlike most personal finance software packages which simply take the drudgery out of personal finance management, Smart Money handles the really hard tasks, like loan amortization scheduling and long term investment strategies.

If your finances have outgrown simple paper and pencil accounting, try Smart Money. Sierra guarantees that you will find it to be a comprehensive and convenient financial management tool.

Put Smart Money to work for you.

It automatically handles transactions you make on a monthly or quarterly basis. Use Smart Money to pay your mortgage payments, phone bills, and insurance payments.
