I disagree. Ensuring your bucket balances equal your account balances is the money flow equivalent of reconciling your bank accounts. Sure, if the bank says I have more money in my account than I think I should, I'm happy, but that's still not a good place to be in. It means some mistake was made somewhere and it may come back to bite me eventually. Yes we should all spend less than we earn, but that should be a conscience decision, not an artifact of mistakes we've made in data entry. I still think MoneyWell should enforce this check by default as it is a huge stumbling block for new users. There could be a preference option for turning it off if you really want to, although I have yet to hear a compelling case for why you'd intentionally let your account balances diverge from your bucket balances. -Lance --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "No Thirst Software User Forum" group.
