It's one of the biggest financial decisions families will make and yet so many parents are woefully unprepared. Who can blame them? The cost of college goes up about 5% a year -- twice the rate of inflation! It also significantly outpaces the average increase in personal income. Sure there's a wealth of information out there about college planning but who has time to sort through it all?
This class will focus on smart financial moves you can make to prepare for the eye-popping cost of your child's higher education, including:
- 529 savings plan
- Coverdell Education Savings Account
- UTMA
- and other savings alternatives
