I setup a Savings Bond account in Money and once a year I check the prices for my bonds in SBWiz and update Money. When I AM updating, I also look at next interest period and enter that into Money. So if a bond has an anniversary date of Feb 1 and generates interest on Feb 1 and Aug 1, I check both dates for that bond in SBWiz and enter both amounts into Money at the same time. On a daily basis I don't show my Sav Bonds account - only use it to check maturity dates / net worth table etc. |

| What is the best way to set up an account for US Savings Bonds in Money 2007? The knowlegde base advises that you set up a cash account and use the government web site for US bonds to occasionally update the value. Would that be a better option than setting it up as an investment account? Thanks in advance, Bill |
