Hi All,

Okay, for 2007 I finally want to get control over my finances. I don't mean strategically "how do I achieve financial independence," but simply and tactically-speaking, how can I gain control over all the financial information coming in and out of my accounts?

I took a look at Quicken earlier this year and was taken aback by how bloated and complex the software seemed to be. Didn't seem like it was going to simplify my life any.

Can anyone recommend some good books, resources, or tips for effectively managing personal finances?

Thanks, and Happy 2007!
