Searching for the perfect financial software
Long live MS Money!

I love playing with numbers.  I love little sliding things that you can move on a budget and it shows you graphically what your outlook will be in 3, 6, 12 months.  I love putting all my credit cards in a pile and seeing how quickly I could whittle them into non-existence.  I love a list of all my bills (seriously!)

I'm on the search for the perfect financial software that even remotely compares to MS Money.  Is it out there?

I've tried Quicken (for Mac and online).  Result:  Ugh!  Projections aren't real, the downloaded version told me I had more money than I did, and the online version refuses to get a bank transaction for $14.22.  I want precision.  If my version and my bank's version don't match up TO THE PENNY, then I'll spend whatever time it takes to figure out why. 

Mint.com: Doesn't have my bank so I've never been able to use it.

Buxfer.com: trying that one now, but I'm kinda "meh" so far.

So now I'll throw it out there into the blogosphere: How do you handle your finances?  What's the best out there for someone who wants to know their outlook?  Does it exist yet?  Do we need to build it?
