Summary |
"While much of the transfer of wealth comes in the form of inheritance, today inter vivos expenditures for a good education may be even more important than intergenerational transfers at death. This accessible resource focuses on Section 529 plans, comparing and contrasting them with other education planning techniques. The authors identify the need to develop strategies for financing K-12, college, graduate, or professional education, detail the rules by which these goals may be accomplished, and explain how to integrate education planning into an individual's comprehensive paradigm for financial, tax, retirement, and estate planning. Although the book's primary focus is on 529 plans, this accessible resource also provides a thorough introduction to the other education savings vehicles that are available. In addition, the book addresses strategies for financing education when savings prove inadequate, including guidance on financial aid planning" -- publisher's website. |
