[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We have 529s for all of our grandchildren who are ten and under. We are almost entirely in equity index funds. When they hit HS age I will likely derisk to a certain extent. [/quote] NP here, with a child about to start high school, so we will need the funds starting in just over 4 years. What do others do with the funds once their kid hits high school? Right now we have our college fund (not a 529, just a brokerage account) in VTSAX (vanguard stock market index fund). [/quote] If you are 4 Years out from needing the funds, I would be no more than 20% equity. Most of the people in this board only remember the last 10 yrs, which have been great for US large cap stocks. Don't forget that you can absolutely lose your ass in an extended bear market.[/quote]
