[quote=Anonymous]Virginia (in the Invest program not the pre-paid). We get the tax breaks because we live here and Vanguard runs the funds so expenses are fairly low (though I find their website difficult to navigate to find fund and plan fees etc compared to my other investments). One lesson learned is that you are only allowed to change investments (i.e. switching what is in one investment vs. another) twice a year for an account. (I think this is a general 529 rule rather than a VA specific one, but I could be wrong). When we were shifting our allocation out of stocks into short term investments as we approached college, I thought I could do it on a more "bit by bit" approach and used up my two changes early in the year and had to wait until the next year. It ended up working out for us because stock appreciation was excellent, but it was a little riskier investment than I had intended.[/quote]
