Do We Need to Track Assets on our iPhone?

Is there any reason to include assets on the iPhone app in addition to banking accounts and credit cards? I'm not likely to record selling my car or house on the iPhone.

Reasons not to include assets:

1. Takes up screen real estate
2. The value of my home is a private thing, and the only reason I'd see to password protect the data.

   xxtemp,

   I'm not 100% sure if it's necessary, I think it depends on how one uses the program. I know that I (and a number of users who run small businesses) use asset accounts to track invoices. From that perspective it's very useful to have this information readily accessible, but I can also see that it's a drawback for others. I've created a ticket for this request, we'll see what other users think.

   The thing to do, I think, is to give options as to which accounts to track. E.g. I have no interest in seeing long term savings on the ipod/iphone, but do want to see short term savings account.
