i use microsoft money to keep track of my finances (yes, it’s just a fancy way of saying balancing my checkbook– but c’mon, i’m 30 now i need a swankier mature-sounding naming convention for my habits). i am endlessly amused that they have this little cash flow forcast for the next 60 days.
i am not sure how they come up with this forcast but it tells me that on July 21 i will have $1859.05 in my checking account and on July 22 i will be -17,358.29.
i wonder what it knows that i don’t.

I like to play around with the reports in Quicken, too. I’m especially impressed that last year almost twelve thousand dollars more went out of my bank account than came in. I’ve given up trying to figure out why or how.
