529s and Financial Aid (Video)

By: Savingforcollege.com

Q:

Joe, I’m a proponent of 529’s. How do you counter the argument that saving in a 529 will diminish your kid’s chances of receiving financial aid from the institution that he or she applies to? Some of my peers argue that the aid package a university normally offers might be completely offset by the amount you save in a 529. Mary Read script
