NC's 529 College Savings Plan Recommended
Money magazine, in a August 2007 article on College Savings Plans, recommended North Carolina's 529 Plan as a good choice for NC residents. NC's plan features:
- A tax deduction for contributions (up to $5,000 for a married couple filing jointly)
- Tax free distributions (when used for qualified higher education expenses
- Low fees
- Multiple investment options
- Use at any college in the U.S.
See my other 529 postings for a more detailed description of the tax rules for 529 Plans.
