New Personal Finance Template for Apple iWork Numbers
September 26th, 2007 | by Michael |
Forum member Yogimartin has posted his personal finance template on the forums. It is very detailed, and weighs in at a whopping 3.9 MB unzipped. **Fair warning: you need a fast Mac to run this.**
It allows the user to track their checking, savings, credit cards, investments and real estate by month. All of the monthly data is consolidated in two report sheets. This is a big upgrade for anyone looking for more firepower than our Checking Account Register.

TDEE,
I agree, it really pushes the current capabilities of Numbers. I still have hope that a maintenance release will help a lot of these performance issues. Excel would have no trouble with a sheet like this, even on an older system.

Incredible Template! Does take a really long time to load. This template could be its own program and I would for sure buy it

Wow. This is very well put together. A bit intimidating at first, but it’s very functional. True, it takes awhile to load, but once it’s loaded it seems snappy. I guess we’ll see once I get a lot of data imported into it. I would like to emphasize the fact that it is not the spreadsheet creators fault that it’s slow, it’s Numbers itself. It just wasn’t made with this kind of template in mind.
