Comment on Ask HN: What money management tool do you use?

Comments

I use Ledger CLI[1] along with a bunch of custom reporting tools. Ledger uses a simple-to-use plain text format and runs queries with a command line program. I've been keeping my finances with it for six years, it's the only system I've ever been able to use consistently.

Not related to finance, but for people who enjoy Ledger and need a calendar application, there is remind[1] which works a lot like Ledger. I just have remind run from my bashrc to print out my reminders at the top of every new terminal. It works great for me.
