Can anyone recommend a personal finance package for the Mac?  There
are quite a few, and I haven't been able to find a comparison (no
library seems to have back issues of popular Mac mags.)

I want to tell it my income, cash, monthly expenses and savings
account, and find out if I will go broke in a year.  Like, "Can I buy a
new stereo, or should I look for a higher paying job?"

Cost is secondary to getting a package that does what I want, but I
would like to spend no more than necessary.

A spreadsheet format would be nice -- should I just buy a spreadsheet?

I sure would appreciate any feedback anyone has on programs they have
used.
