[quote=Anonymous]3/6/19 19:00 here. I think it needs to be acknowledged that there are two types of 529 plans. One being prepaying tuition and the other general investing in the market. So yes if you are investing in the market as a whole, I can see where it might not matter which state you pick. If you pick a prepaid plan, then I believe state does matter where you can only get the prepaid benefit off the public university from the state you choose. That was the basis about where my comment was coming from, in that you can use the prepaid private plan from somewhere around 300 schools where a normal state plan might have 15 or so to choose from. On the other side, investing straight in the market adds much more risk to a college savings account where prepaying for school, you would get about a 4% risk free rate of return. In my book that sounds a lot better for the purposes of paying for college.[/quote]
