The decision to invest in a college education carries more weight today than ever before. 

With escalating costs and evolving job markets, the question isn't just about getting a degree; it's about making smart financial choices for the future. 

In this episode, I tackle the critical aspects of investing in education and the nuances of funding college. It's a deep dive into balancing the scales of knowledge acquisition and savvy financial planning.

I also explore various financial vehicles like UTMA, UGMA accounts, 529 accounts, Roth IRAs, and others, dissecting their advantages and potential pitfalls. It's not just about choosing the right account; it's about understanding how these decisions ripple through your financial life.

So make sure to catch this episode – it's packed with insights that could be vital in securing a stronger financial future for you and your family. 

IN TODAY’S EPISODE, I DISCUSS: 

  • Tax implications and benefits of UTMA/UGMA accounts versus 529 and Roth IRAs
  • Strategies for paying for college without jeopardizing your retirement
  • The true cost of student loans and how to guide your kids towards financial savviness
