Can anyone please recommend a piece of personal finance software that:

Is not an app.
Is preferably not Web 2.0.
Does not need to import data from bank accounts.
Is simple enough for a 12 year old.

It's proving quite hard to find. My 12 year old doesn't need to file a tax return on her piggy bank or calculate PAYE on her pocket money.

?

I'm with NLUK on this one - teaching them spreadsheets and budgets at the same time is a great idea.

You need to get a bit tougher with them. In my house even toilet time is learning time...

Thanks. Knowing my daughter a tool that presents a budget with a calendar view is going to be more intuitive to her.

OK, Excel it is.

Purely personal - what's your gender?

+1 excel, it'll take you 5 minutes to code, 10 minutes to make it look pretty
