Oh jeez, haha… that’s certainly a hack!

Wave has been doing the trick just fine for me so far… It doensn’t connect to Paypal which surprised me, but the rest has been pretty smooth and easy so I’m gonna stick with it for now…. (and no hacking necessary as it’s 100% free!)

I have a small business and my bookkeeping is super simple — so simple that I can enter a year’s worth of transactions in about an hour.

I’ve been using Quickbooks since 2000 so I don’t really want to switch to a different program (tried Wave and Xero — wasn’t a fan), but I hate the idea of paying a monthly subscription. My “hack” is to pay for only one month per year for their service. In mid-Dec I activate my account and pay for a month, enter all my transactions, then have my accountant grab a copy of my books once I’m done. Once she has a copy, I cancel my plan. Quickbooks keeps data for a year while cancelled, so there is no data loss (can still log in and view all reports, just can’t make any changes). ~92% yearly discount for Quickbooks :)

thanks dude!!

yeah – they should be paying attention to *ALL* sites out there! at least if they’re good curators ;) maybe you’ll have to write something spicy to get their attention though?

Haha, thanks man…

JD is in the process of redesigning his site too to be more minimal! or as he calls it – “Dedesigning”…

guess we both just can’t stay away for too long :)

Great list of resources. I’ve been using Wave for business expenses for years. Highly recommended for anyone who wants to organize business expenses/income for businesses of any size.

Hey man I am happy with whatever frequency your soul and body have to give. I always exit reading your thoughts with a little lift in my soul.

Cool you are joining Apex. GRS was the first blog I started reading back in the day before it was originally sold, then repurchased… I feel like I heard about something like that happening recently…. what site was that again??? :) Please don’t burn yourself out though, this community needs J.Money.

Very helpful on the curation sites! It does seem like there used to be more of this kind of stuff (before I had a site of my own!). There are a couple on there that I wasn’t aware of. Hopefully they are in the market for once or twice per month content from a part-timer like myself!

Loving the return of Elite Edge Money!
