“I have both but primarily use credit cards to buy most things. I concur with all your reasons. I pay my credit card balance in full every month.”

“Looking for the report showing income and expense for 2023. It shows up in a circle on top and specifics on the bottom. Thanks.”

“Here's a tip: even though I told Quicken to exclude all transfers, it was showing as income a transfer from my brokerage account to my checking account. I had to go in to the settings and uncheck the 'category' box for the brokerage account.”

“I have had credit cards since '89 or '90 and have only had one case of fraud, and the bank caught it and called me before I noticed it. Maybe it is because I live in Australia?”

“Hmm, I guess I could use this for mortgage. Wanted to use one transaction as a transfer account and then split it so it keeps track of remaining principle. Guess I got to play to learn, lol.”

“Thanks for the breakdown. Can you explain what you do with the taxes portion?”
