Boachsoft Finance 2012 software, developed in Accra and in East Akyem in the Eastern Region of Ghana, is helping many families across the globe to balance the family budget and save for their children´s future . People say it is better than the American product Quicken in many ways.

The next version would be released in December 2015. Only use the 2012 version.

The controller and accountant general´s department must expedite the payment of new employees. Rent-advance is not easy to come by and some new employees have to resort to sugar daddies to solve their problem.

I came across this article on family finance and I think all should read it:

Dr. Bawumia is the solution to Mahama economic loss. Mahama=edey be keke=policyless. NDC inherited a growing economy from Kufour with good policies like NHIA,School feeding prog, Metro Mass Transport, Capitation grant, Leap, NYEP and N1 Highway , Accra-Ofankor,Nsawam-Suhum Highway etc. What has Mahama and NDC added to Kufour's transformationary policies from 2009 to 2014??. Dr. Bawumia said it long ago that Mahama is policyless and clueless. Mahama is bereft of ideas and focusless. Mahama said he will borrow more for development in the mist of huge fiscal deficit. Mahama will now listen to Dr. Bawumia and IMF?????????

The idiocy of the ndc govt really never ceases to amaze us . we never thought they were intrinsically born stupid . why are they crying now that nobody worth their salt wants to touch them with a 10 foot pole or even go near them and assist them with ideas . First all having ideas doesn't mean you have the personnel or cadres to execute them , if you did you would already have the ideas and solutions . Stealing ideas can never help as always there is a hidden substance that is not readily visible . Third why shop around for ideas when we all already know the sustainable healthy projects are already in the system but for the corrupt pepeni , ayigbe and Ga idiots these things are being sabotaged in by the bureaucracy and same ministers of state , give us a break with this colossally stupid form and stop the bullshit . establish the rule of law and justice for all and these things will give relief to the economy and our people

Ghanaians should understand that economic forum is an indication of NDC failure. In fact,the (P)NDC has been like this ever since its formation-bereft of ideas and wanting to govern by any means. In 1979, it was through the barrel of the gun;today, by manipulation of the electoral system. At the end of the day, the end up destroying the country.

1. NPP by boycotting this economic forum has lost opportunity to make the case that they are a better alternative to NDC.

2. NPP by boycotting this forum will be perceived as separatist party with lack of concern for Ghana and Ghanaians but this is the very country you want to rule in 2016.

3. This forum is a mini acampaign for 2016 elections. This where you mount the same stage boot for boot with NDC and prove your party is superior or better alternative.

4. President Kuffour where are you? please save your party from separatist new leaders.

5. NPP leaders please send your serogates to represent the party 4 more days to go. Get in there now please and very big please and show your skills.

A word to the wise is always enough!

Keep tickling yourself, my stepson !

Didn't Dr.Bawumia predict the current economic mess and self-inflicted hardships before the 2012 elections and again some months ago ?

Didn't Osafo Marfo also predict the current predicament a year ago ?

Didn't the minority NPP in parliament hold press conferences on the corrupt and abysmal performance of the Mahama administration ?

Which of the advices proferred by the above NPP entities was ever accepted in good faith instead of with insults by the NDC ?

For any who can read and write, the track record of the NPP is there for all to see.

From a highly indebted poor country(HIPC)in 2001 with a GDP of a just $3.8 billion to a middle income country with a GDP of over $16 billion in just 6 years without oil revenues.

Cocoa production from 320,000 tonnes in 2001 to 750,000 tonnes in 2007 and a projected upward trend of a million tonnes in 2009 if the NPP had been in power.

They have nothing in their coconuts other than vigilantism and arrogance. And the murderer Jerry Rawlings too is trying to talk economics when he is actually the primary cause of the economic mess.

Surely the timing, noises and the message it is sending is that the country finances are bad and getting worse. So the immediate reaction is higher cost of money , loss of interest in the local currency, and ultimately devaluation. All should expect another 5% to 10% devaluation in currency within the next 3 weeks. Am not even sure if the government itself is not targeting a 4 or 5 cedis rate to the dollar by December hence all the panicky initiatives being taken every quarter this year with the currency as the major target!! something simply does not add up in Ghana particularly under this government!!!

All you know is Tonga off, jump onto the bed. Hey, where is my sitting allowa? We need pay rise. Ghana will be ungovernable and all that crap.

The whole world is watching you.

A soldier will never say to his commander I am not ready because you gave me short notice and a farmer will just pick his tool and head for the farm. Why not you empty barrels may loud noise for no reason?

No justification is acceptable. Shame unto you NPP traitors and war mongers.

You shall never come to power in ages.

Since the government suggested the forum,we have no choice but to tag along.
However I don't think we have a shred of confidence in it bringing out any miracles.
The government should rather hold any thought of signing any dumb agreements at this stage like the IMF bail out,world bank bail out,the EPA agreement and GMO .
I don't think this government is sound enough at this stage to enter into any form of agreement that can be drastically life changing to Ghanaians and the economy.
That is what I pay this forum achieves.
