Can I take out student loans I dont need and leave it in a high interest savings account, then pay the loan off before graduating? This is a really dumb question but I am into building credit and I have a high-interest savings account, and I was wondering if I could do this without consequence. Because of my income status, I wont have to pay for tuition and I have the option of taking out subsidized federal loans that don’t accrue interest until I graduate. Could I hypothet…

Save for college in 529 or normal brokerage account?

( www.reddit.com )

Save for college in 529 or normal brokerage account? My state provides no tax benefit for putting money in a 529. Obviously, there’s the tax free growth I get by being in 529 (as long as I use the money for my child’s college). On the other hand, if my child goes to a cheaper college or not at all, I’d have a 10% penalty. So question is – do I put in, say a 100k, in a 529 for by 6 month old? Or d…

No one can find my son’s 529 account. I hope this is the right place to post this. I opened a 529 plan back 2015 after my son was born. We had a few years of hardship and were not able to contribute much during those years. Now I’m in a better financial situation and would like to contribute and play catch up. I closed my (business) account with the bank that I opened the 529 with i…

This Instagram Account Posts Mundane 0-60 Times And I’m Obsessed With It I’m tired of watching hypercars and 1,000+ horsepower electric vehicles rip off 0-60 times faster than you can finish this sentence. Sometimes it’s just nice to have a little pallet cleanser when it comes to acceleration times. Rather than watching ultrafast cars sprint to 60, it’s interesting to see what even the… Read more…

Gave my financial advisor 20k three years ago and the account hasn’t grown at all Back in 2021 my husband and I started using a financial advisor. The firm manages my mother’s accounts and therefore extended us her fee of 1.10%. We gave our advisor a total of $20k August-Nov of 2021 and they put it into a “joint retail account”. They said we are playing the long game with the money, but over the years never once has the accou…

How is a checking account without check writing really a checking account? The large bank where I have my accounts is changing the way it handles checking accounts starting later this summer.

Is a 529 account the best way to save towards my kids’ college costs? I know at one point it was not considered the best option, but I think that was before you could roll leftover into an Roth IRA. Is it now considered the best choice? I live in NC, btw. Edit: secondary question: is a single account or multiple accounts recommended for multiple kids? submitted by /u/itstommygun
