[quote=Anonymous]My daughter is entering 8th grade this year. I have 80k saved in her 529. My hope is to pay for at least 80% of her post-high school education. Is this enough for a decent appreciation over the next 5 years, or do I need to keep going and save a bit more? I also have a rising 1st grader. Only 30k in his 529, but a little less worried, since in theory, I have more time to save. I have a working poor background and my financial literacy isn't great, though I try to educate myself. If I do nothing else, I want to give my kids a little "leg up". So this isn't a brag post, just looking for a quick gut check (and maybe reassurance that I'm [i]mostly[/i] on track. [/quote]
