Question: New Years Resolution: Save money rather than spend and get into debt: any free spreadsheets out there?

im not talkin about loans on a house or condo, just loans on stuff other than land/houses/condos. (My partner and I own a condo and are making more than the required minimum payments on our mortgage) Are there any good websites or spreadsheet templates on the net that itemise your goal for you on an annual basis? I want to get rid of my credit card debt of $12k and save enough money to start a small business (my partner doesn’t know about either of these otherwise he would explose). I would still work in my crappy job so my expenses are covered and to have an income stream…just that I want to pay off my credit card debt without my partner knowing and then start a small business and tell him when the business is off the ground. So I need the spreadsheet for both these things.

Answer: www.msn.com used to have many spreadsheets for use for free. Or try www.money.com

Question: Is there a simple program/spreadsheet to enter previous business records into?

I had a lot of trouble with my accounting software the past two years and it’s a mess. I tried to use Quick books but it is a pain trying to enter old records into as it really wants to manage your accounts. Is there a simple program or spreadsheet that I can get that will just allow me to enter my deposits and expense (within a category) for two accounts that would be acceptable according to IRS guidelines? I appreciate your help while I try to clean up this mess.
Unfortunately it hasn’t been profitable since 2007. Actually trying to clean up the mess…..

Answer: PRESUMING YOU have a profitable biz, why bother with all that?
hire a PT accountant or take all your data to a CPA;
i have other friends who started doing what you are doing and
when they realized the time invested/wasted, they chose
to pay for all of that and sold more goods and services every time
they THOUGHT of handling the accounting.
