Summary
Welcome to our twenty third episode of "A Word About Wealth”. We are dusting off the old cap and gown, going on late night munchie runs, and figure out how to pay for all of this. That's right folks, we're going back to college! If you haven’t noticed, college is EXPENSIVE!!! Not only are they ever more difficult to get admitted, these institutions expect you to pay premiums that are ever skyrocketing as we speak. Luckily, there are ways that you can help cover some of these costs. For Part 1 of this series, we will be setting up the table to give you the low down on 529s and ESA plans. College may cost you an arm and a leg, but with the right plan, you can at least grow another arm. As always, if you have any questions, comments, or topic recommendations, please email us at [email protected].
