Short Title
College Savings
Abstract
This paper investigates the possible opportunity cost of using standard college savings plans against the advantages of using debt to pay for college. In addition, it presents a practical argument for using debt in place of college savings plans in certain instances.
By doing so, investors may not only be able to mitigate the difficulty of saving, but also realize greater financial benefit in the long run.
