Double or Single Entry?
I prefer double entry. Your life is actually quite complicated.
Only money?
How do you represent non-monetary assets? What bout documents, records, events?
Ideal
(1) Track your money. What assets do you have? What liabilities? Where is your money coming from and going to? Track the prices of your assets in the market.
(2) Budgeting & Planning. What can you afford? Make difficult financial decisions responsibly.
(3) Manage history, recordkeeping. Keeping track of receipts and important financial documents.
(4) Family History. Keeping track of your family--a family log or event system. Maybe even a calendar applications.
