January 12, 2017
If you haven’t made your New Year’s resolutions yet, why not let 2017 be the year you finally start saving for your child’s college education?
“Opening a Future Scholar 529 College Savings Plan is a great way to get your financial house in order,” said South Carolina Treasurer Curtis Loftis.
While many consumers still do not know what a 529 plan is, according to a recent survey, the plans continue to be on the rise as the preferred vehicle for saving for college.
“And a Future Scholar account, which offers even more tax advantages for those who file a South Carolina tax return, can help you start the year off on the right foot,” Loftis said. “It truly is the smart, easy way to save for college.”
