How secure is a Google sheets spreadsheet?
Unsure if I am posting in the proper forum, but I am running Windows so I chose this forum...........will repost in a different forum if necessary.
I currently have a LibreOffice spreadsheet with most of my financial information on it. I'm considering converting this to a Google sheets spreadsheet in order to give easy access to my financial advisor. However, I think that the Sheets file would "live" in the cloud and could probably be hacked and make my financial info available to the bad guys.
Am I right to be concerned, or could I use Sheets and take precautions to prevent unwanted persons from accessing my financial spreadsheet?
All advice is appreciated.

rebeccakerr - Google sheets are secure, so you don't need to be afraid. Only people that have access to your google account have access to your Google Sheets files. Also, you can send links to your google sheets files. But I don't like working on this platform. I like Microsoft Excel more. Whenever I had to work with google sheets, I imported google sheets to excel via Coupler.io, worked with the document, and then imported it back into google sheets. The most significant advantage of Google Sheets is that it is easy to share files online.
