I have been running various version(currently 5.0) of MYM and found it
to be a very valuable tool.  I use all of the chapters that come with it. 
I have purchased the upgrade contract ($60/yr) only once to get the most 
current version.  The contract includes the one yearly upgrade and 4 
quarterly newsletters.  The program is well laid out and documented very
nicely.  The on line help screen almost make the manuals unnecessary.
The portfolio manager is excellent in tracking all type of investments.
It even has a historical net worth graph that you can use to see if you
are gaining against the world or not. IMHO it is worth the money
