There are a few things in my Flashnote that probably would work better in a spreadsheet but Flashnote loads so quickly and is so convenient that I'm not too bothered by that.<br /><br />By the way, I checked out your blog yesterday and added it to my Google Reader. :)Carlahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09140819019098738245noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3968444616198803470.post-14961989257360139822009-12-08T16:40:58.034+11:002009-12-08T16:40:58.034+11:00I usually use Excel for most of my financial stuff...I usually use Excel for most of my financial stuff as well as my census and real estate information.

This time, I just told myself I'd stick to it as best I could and be willing to change the rules down the line if I didn't like them. The college rules, for example. <BR/><BR/>Good luck - I tried to track the computer down for this thread but couldn't find it. I was looking at it last night though and it doesn't have the roommate option on it, so I think it's only FT it's been updated for. It still works though. I think it was updated by Chaavik or something like that, if that helps.Carlahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09140819019098738245noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3968444616198803470.post-36130650299708128822008-12-13T15:51:00.000+11:002008-12-13T15:51:00.000+11:00Very cool!

Wow, $36,000! How are you calculating your taxes? With most of my Sims currently, it works out to less than $1000 a rotation but people like Emmy, Sacha and Nelson (all top of their careers) have had quite a large chunk taken.Carlahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09140819019098738245noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3968444616198803470.post-13436540321899695662008-12-13T00:48:00.000+11:002008-12-13T00:48:00.000+11:00These are really great ideas!

That just might be a bit too expensive, but we'll see ;) <BR/><BR/>I use Monique's computer too!
