You missed the article about 6.25 million of the 11.8 million 529's being held by households less than $150k income?
Same point still stands. I started a 529 at time... not long after Obama and crew were out promoting them for their tax free status. Only 3 years in buddy... It isn't like my daughter had 10-12 years of contributions and gains to benefit from before they changed things again. Shit, it was only 2009 when the tax free aspect became "permanent".
Heh. I didn't miss the part where 97% of families don't have 529 plans.
