Hi, moore.gg.
A very similar question came up here just a couple of weeks ago. You might
want to read that thread, Subject: Investment account annuitized?, started
by Steve on 7/23/07. I was not able to give Steve a definitive answer on
how to handle his annuity in Quicken, but you might gain something from our
discussion.
And maybe someone familiar with the current rules for annuities will chip in
and offer some better advice than I can give, since I've been retired for so
long.
