Reuters has an article(I actually think’s a press release) about “The State Of College Savings” survey which was released a few weeks ago. The conclusions are a little depressing, but not all that surprising. But on the plus side, 529 accounts are still the best savings vehicle for college around.
FTA:
Forty-four percent of parents are “not very confident” that they will reachtheir college savings goals, up from 31 percent in 2008; while the number of
parents who are “very confident” has plunged to 12 percent from 20 percent
last year.
The 2009 report doesn’t seem to be posted online yet.
But here’s the 2008 and 2007 versions.
