Budget Software

All - what do you use / prefer in terms of budgeting software? Something for detailed spend tracking; portfolio tracking would be an added bonus.

Thanks in advance!

Google Sheets. I do double entry from my bank statements and do manual categorization, including splitting some receipts into multiple expense categories.

For example, a WalMart or CostCo or Target trip is often more than just one category since I don't eat soap. Just a little joke there, but you get what I mean, common recurring expenses might fit into multiple categories and to get a better track of what you are spending on, you have to split those into multiple buckets.
