Re: College Funds for Kids
I am not married yet, but anyway as a recent college grad, i found it hard to pay college/fees without the help from parents. So the end was hefty amount of loan, which Alhumdolillah i payed back with-in a 1 and half year.
The point is their should be some college money available from parents, it definitely help to concentrate on studies instead of how to pay fees.
Rest i don't have enough information about investing for college, but i will not suggest to invest in real estate in current environment, wait for few months prices will starting to recover before the end of this year how? Well in the new stimulus package congress added a new clause of 15000$ a year tax cut for home owners.
Savings account / Long terms cd's are viable and 100% safe options, IMHO !
