Should it not now be a liability?
You took out a mortgage, as I understand it. The dollars you received
didn't just come from nowhere. As I understand your first post, you
committed to repaying some organization a total of $100,000 (plus
interest), in exchane for wich you received 95K. You need a good
investment to pay that liability back (not that it can't be done).

Han,
You are correct. I set up a "mortgage" account that is a 100,000
liability and pay down interest and principal every month.
I set up a Vanguard Account for 95,000. Outside of the 5,000 in points
and fees, I didn't want either of them to show up as income or
expense. The mortgage account showed up fine, the problem was with the
Vanguard account.

I changed Helocs some time ago, both to get rid of that bank, to get a
somewhat higher line of credit for emergencies, and a better rate. I
started it off by using some of the line of credit to repay the then
outstanding mortgage loan (it was both interest and principal at that
time). Since I have had to take out more money, but I am in the process of
repaying more than the minimum.

In your case, you used the mortgage money to fund a Vanguard account, so
you could let Quicken show that: 100K liability, with a split - 95K going
to Vanguard, and 5K to whatever fees and interests you payed.
