- 12529 plan vs regular brokerage account for kidsParents are caught between the tax advantages of a 529 plan and the rigid restriction that the money must be used for education.

Because friends have very particular tastes, standard trinkets risk missing the mark and becoming clutter rather than meaningful keepsakes.
