Reducing the Cost of College - Estate and Financial Planning Considerations
The exorbitant cost of college has a major impact on an individual’s finances. There are several different avenues available to ease this burden, regardless of financial circumstances. Gregg will review the different long and short-term opportunities that exist and considerations to be made as families approach the college years. The conversation will go well beyond savings vehicles and income and asset allocation strategies that are available. The discussion will include considerations for families regardless of their ability to qualify for need-based aid and grandparents seeking to contribute to their grandchild’s education.
