So way back when I used to use Mint.com to help me manage my finances. It worked great until Intuit bought them, ended the app, and redirected their customers to CreditKarma. I hated getting spam messages and haven’t used a personal finance app for years. I finally set up ActualBudget and it great for budgeting but I want to keep track of investments, retirement holdings, property, and things outside of the monthly budget. I don’t think ActualBudget does that. Are there any self hosted projects that helps me keep track of stocks, property, and other assets?
So that actually doesn’t do what I want. It will record buying and selling of securities but only as if it were like making purchases or payments in a credit card or bank account. It doesn’t keep track of the value of the security or any other asset. For example, I have a Roth account and it has a couple hundred shares of an index fund in it. Actual will only show that I spent several thousand on that index fund (listing it’s name in the notes) but not the number of shares I bought and at what price at the time of purchase. I won’t be able to track gains or losses for each security, only as a whole of the entire Roth. Actual doesn’t do what I want it to do and I don’t know enough TypeScript to contribute.
GnuCash will do the sort of security trade accounting you’re talking about. I don’t know how GnuCash compares to the other offerings, but it can be fully offline and has a lot of features.
