[quote=Anonymous]I am confused about 529 paying for haircuts and beauty things. The way we do it with our two in college is we pay for tuition, meals and housing. If something else is a true need they have an Amex for that purpose: books, ds's haircuts at campus barber, cough drops, gas to come home, things like tampons and pads for dd, a new charger...They are very good about not using it without asking if they need a larger item like for instance ds needing a new jacket. For any "fun" spending, they have a $100/mo allowance. Dd is working on campus so she doesn't even need it and told us we don't need to give it to her, but we do for the sake of equity: DS has not found a job yet so he is perpetually up to $100, down to $65...He's been sending out resumes so hopefully he finds something. Having no fun money is a good motivation.[/quote]
