Managing your account with SharpAccounting, an open source personal accounting software I developed using using .NET technologies to help me sharpen my .Net skills.

My SharpAccounting open source software is not the best accounting system, but it gives you more of the features you would expect in an accounting software to help you manage your day to day accounting activities. Spending money is very easy but earning money and keeping account on how you earn and spend the money is not an easy task.  SharpAccounting was built not just to sharpen my .NET skills but to also solve these simple accounting problems. I have met a lot of people who don't keep account on how they spend and earn. Just like most business people would tell you, developing an accounting habit is a very good thing to you as a money earner and spender as it allows you to make wise financial decision.




The accounting task is already tedious, now doing it with pen and paper would be hell especially for someone who is not so much in love with calculations. Over the years, there has been personal accounting packages of which some are free that helps you manage your financial life.
It is not easy to make money, if this is the case, proper management of your income should be of paramount importance to you. You can't spend money on things you did not budget for, except the money you have is inexhaustible otherwise, you should make your budget before spending.
My SharpAccounting software is not a thousand dollar software, it just a free accounting tool that gives you what you need to manage your finance properly.
The Software has the following features:

  • Account Management
  • Expense Management
  • Loan Management
  • Fund Transfer
  • Full Accounting Report
  • Debt Management
  • Account Management

This feature allows you to create an account, fund the account and view a detailed report about your account. In SharpAccounting, you can only create two types of account:
Income Account: You can only fund this type of account from external source of income such as: Salary income, Gift income and other external sources.
Savings Account: You can only fund this type of account from an existing Income Account or fund it when creating it by setting an initial amount for the account. (Note: The setting of the initial amount for the Savings Account type will be removed in the versions to come.).

Expense Management

The expense management helps you make expenses and keep track of the record and shows you the item that was spent for or purpose of the expense, the date the expense was made, the amount that was spent, the account that the expense was made from and the maker of that expense. With this, you just have total control over your expense records and can always make wise financial decision based on this report.

Loan Management

This feature allows you to manage the loan you take from people and the one ones you give to people. It keeps every basic record you need to keep for a loan transaction such as: the giver of the loan (if you are the one taking the loan), the collector of the loan(if you are the one giving the loan), Amount, calculated interest, Date, Loan Collector/Loan Giver' Contact details, etc.

Microsoft will allow you to upgrade your pirated Windows 7 or 8 to full Windows 10 for little or no amount.

Microsoft's latest Operating System has been trending for a while now, while some are still contemplating on who gets a free upgrade from the two previous Microsoft's Operating Systems just like the company promised and who wouldn't, Microsoft has announced that the upgrade to Windows 10 would be free for genuine Windows 7 or 8 users and there is a good news for pirated Windows 7 or 8 users, they too might go to the Promised Land for free or pay a little fee.Hmmm..., with this in place, you can see how determined Microsoft is to pull everyone into its Windows 10 ecosystem. You know, when Windows 10 Technical Preview was first announced along with how it's going to operate (Windows as a Service), I thought Microsoft is finally kicking Windows Pirates out of business, but it seems Microsoft is giving them one more chance to own a genuine Windows, maybe Windows 10  is going to be "un-piratable" (let's just hope MS gets it right).Hahaha!...., before I forget,

HOW TO WRITE, COMPILE AND RUN C++ CODE ON LINUX KALI

This article is for hackers who want to develop a c++ program on Kali Linux without having to install any additional software. While some would tell you that you need to install an additional software or a compiler in order to develop a simple program in c++ on Kali Linux, I am going to show you how to develop a c++ program on this distro right out of box. Your Linux Kali comes pre-installed with a c++ compiler called g++ so we are going to write a C++ hello word code and compile it with this compiler. Before we get started, first open up terminal and run to verify if this compiler is installed on you machine: g++ -v if the compiler is pre-installed, you should get the version information of the compiler, otherwise, you should get an error. Now let's jump right in. In your terminal window, type in: nano MyCpp.cpp to create a c++ file and lunch it in nano editor for editing. When nano opens, type in the following c++ code and press Ctrl+x then y and then R

LOAN MANAGEMENT SYSTEM (My Project Idea)

There are many companies that specializes on giving loan to people; they make their profits by collecting interest on any money they lend out, and before a loan can be given to any customer, the customer must provide a collateral and some details such as:  contact details and a reference/guarantor. When the loan is finally given to the customer, they charge interest based on the the amount given to the customer for a given period of time which could be daily, weekly, monthly or yearly.  For example, a company could be collecting interest based on a particular amount for a given period of time like: $200,000 loan would have an interest tag of $2,000  per month until the money is returned, and $100,000 would have an interest of $1,000 per month until the money is returned.  In  addition, the customers need to know when the time for them to pay their interest comes e.g.  at the end of the month or the timing model with which the calculation is being made. Usually, these companies sends ou
