The AxBean Chronicles: Is Donald Trump a Quickbooks, Excel or Access kind of guy?

Now that we all got that out of way, his bigger than life personality will probably be the driving force behind what he might choose. Will he immediately pick something like a straightforward accounting software program like the very popular Quickbooks? Using this is very much like living with the parents. Because the software is laid out in such a basic instructional format, if someone wasn't technical savvy, this program will pretty much hold the user's hand.

How about Excel? It might work for the The Don. If say, Mr. Trump bought a New York apartment, there are features in Excel that can let an accounting spreadsheet be customized without worrying about the parents' rules too much. You can't walk into other living areas of course. The neighbors wouldn't like that. But, it will be more personal to the business instead of an one size fits all program.
Even though I don't know Donald Trump, he's probably a "Go Big or Be Nothing" kind of guy and he wouldn't be happy with Excel for much longer.

Microsoft Access or any database program is like buying a New York building on the upper west side. There are a lot of apartments all under one roof, like having many spreadsheet files, and after taking a sledge hammer to them, they can be renovated to connect to each other without a wall standing in the way and can freely share and compile any information Mr. Trump's heart desires.
With being a real estate mogul, one building would not suffice for this fellow. Whatever he picks, it will eventually be in the cloud.
