    Great info everyone! I'm not trying to hijack the thread, but I have a related 529 question.

    Is your child required to attend a school within the state of the 529 plan? Or can the plan be used anywhere? For example, if I start a 529 plan for my kids through Georgia, are they required to go to a university in Georgia?

    Any guidance is greatly appreciated.

But for the life of me I can't seem to find the article. It was in business week or marketwatch, morningstar etc, one of those I look at for stock info. And you don't have to invest in the 529 plan in the state you live in.

    The above link is the one I'm thinking of. It popped in while I was writing this. But anyhoo, ya can't swing a dead cat without hitting a best of website, but the one above is a good one.
