A. NO. While you can physically copy the current version freely, morally and legally you are bound by the Single-User License Agreement that forms an integral part of your purchase.  You may use your copy on your computer(s) e.g. laptop and/or desktop.  With integrity, please do not make or share illegal copies.

Q. How accurate are the results?

A. The program has been purpose built to present approximate forecasts based on the input criteria selected.  Results are averaged and rounded for clarity and in general will be very close to 98% accuracy.  The key element affecting the results is the decision to consider a month 30 days for simplicity of design.

Regardless of calculated results, your actual results will depend on you and your actions.  Please read our Earnings Disclaimer
