Are you putting away funds for your kid's college years and saving money on your taxes? If not, you can. It's called a 529 college savings plan.

What are the benefits of this option?

🇺🇸 State income tax deduction or credit (in over 30 states).

💸 Regular (up to $18K) and "superfund" ($90K at once, spread over 5 years) contributions maximize the potential for compounding growth while helping reduce your taxable estate.

⌨️ Investment options are user-friendly, often featuring age-based portfolios that automatically adjust as the beneficiary gets closer to college age.

🏦 Starting and managing is fairly simple -- setting up automatic contributions from your bank account, choosing from a variety of investment options depending on how conservative or aggressive you want to be.

🧑‍🧑‍🧒‍🧒 Flexibility! For example, if your child decides not to go to college, you can name another family member as the beneficiary and keep the educational dream alive within your family.

Don't get caught in a pricing competition to get leads.

Instead, be clear about the value you provide and convey it to your prospects.

Don't think that'll work... especially in an inflationary economy?

Look at Louis Vuitton and BMW.
They're charging top dollar for their products, AND they're reporting profits right now.

Which means, you can too.
