I am currently running Money 2006; here is my question.

If I deposit my check, lets say $1000 every 2 weeks into my bank account,
how do I budget for items that may only happen every 6 months. I have to take
a particular amount out of each check each month until i reach the 6 month
mark. Would i have to transfer the necessary monthly amount from checking to
a newly created fund/account (holding area) , or is there another way to show
on the monthly budget that say $50 of the $1000 goes to insurance that is due
in 6 months. I hope i am making sense.

Click on "planned amount" under that section in your budget and then click "I
want to pay a different amount each month." Put zero in for ten of the
months, and the amount of your car insurance for the two months it is due.

For instance:
January: $0
February: $500
March: $0
April: $0
May: $0
June: $0
July: $500
August: $0
September: $0
October: $0
November: $0
December: $0

How can i budget for items in MS Money 2006 that are several months out. For
example my car insurance payment is due every 6 months but i know that i need
X amount each month so when the bill comes, i know i have the money there.
Is there a way MS Money to set that money asside some how?
