I create most of my transactions with a script reading my bank and card statements. The description in the statements are usually good enough to map them to the correct account. I also added snippets to my editor for adding entries (I use a text-based accounting system).

>Insurance companies (same as betting companies) always need to bill you more than the chance you get your big payoff.

In theory, couldn't they charge less if the ROI of the premiums was large enough?
