Yerga,
I have a suggestion......which I am also going to make to the maker of Buddy.
Why donīt the two of you get to gether and make a killer financial app.
What Buddy does and StockThis could benefit from:
- Log financial transactions, sum them up and build graphs over time
What StockThis does and Buddy could benefit from:
- Quiz Yahoo finance by trackers for stock holdings, mutual funds etc. (Or stock holding or whatever index Iīm tracking)
What I am imagining with those two combined is that I could have my 401K mutual funds listed, as well as what I own in each, at what market price I bought it (and perhaps the date).
The application would then query yahoo finance and calculate how much of a yearly gain/loss or total gain/loss I was in on each particular fund, and even able to summarize up my work 401K holdings, my wifeīs 401K holdings, my sonīs savings etc through creating different accounts a-la Buddy
I canīt make it happen, although itīd be great to be able to program this, my 70 hour workweeks donīt allow for much time to finish a program like this. It wouldnīt be done ītill 2012, which is sort of late.
