Questions
Why buy a file if a general sheet is free?
For a specific layout: a couples split ($14), a sinking-funds calendar ($5), or a year dashboard ($15). Each is one-time. A free general sheet stays a single month.
Does the paid file import my bank?
No. You type the numbers in. A bank-sync subscription is the category that imports them.
