Microsoft Money is a great asset for small business
Even if you have a very small business and are just starting out learning accounting is one of the most improtant things that you can do to become succesful. Microsoft Money is a great tool that will help with this success.
But before investing in any software I recommend going to the library to get information on bookkeeping and accounting. Teaching yourself about financing and taxes of your business is the first step before anything else. That way no matter what software you choose to make bookkeeping easier, you can be sure it is accurate. While you don't have to be an expert in everything that is involved in your business, it is highly important to be familiar with it all.
Microsoft Money is a great product in my opinion. But if you don't have the money right now, I recommend doing your books the old fashion way until you have enough in profits to justify the software purchase. Especially if your business is very small right now, and your financial statements are still uncomplicated. But if you have the money, don't worry about the price or popularity of your software, the most important thing to consider is whether or not it performs the functions you require. If Microsoft Money provides everything your business requires, then by all means purchase it, use it, and it will no doubt save you money.
