August 2007 General Meeting:
Our General Meeting on Tuesday, Aug
7th, featured a presentation on "Get Your
Personal Finances in Shape"
presented by ACUG Treasurer Dick Johnson. Do you find you are out of
money by the end of the month? Do your bills sometimes surprise you?
Do you want to save money for something special? Dick will discuss
the advantages of tracking your personal finances and how to use a
computer and finance software to assist in keeping your financial
life in order. If you are not sure what a Transaction Register is,
or have never had a budget, or maybe would like to learn some tips
on using budgets, categories, memos and reports, then this is the
meeting for you!
