OVERVIEW
===========================================================

MAKE$.CENTS is a personal finance package for Windows 3.1 
and Windows 95 that does traditional checkbook management, 
account reconciliation and historical analysis of where 
money was spent.  It is different from other packages in 
how it budgets, handles credit cards and helps the user 
get out of debt.  MAKE$.CENTS assists you in assigning a 
role to each dollar you earn by implementing the time-
honored Envelope Budgeting methodology where, in effect, 
each category is like an account with a maintained balance.  
MAKE$.CENTS provides Custom Registers allowing the user to 
define the transactions belonging to it.  A custom register 
which includes all checking and credit card transactions, 
provides a balance which, if kept positive, insures that 
credit cards can be paid off in full.


INSTALLATION
