529 Plans - Creative ways to use them

Post by renue74 »

I have two kids: 20 and 18. Both have decided to go to a tech school and work in the trades (electrical). I told them if they did that and then became licensed and worked a couple years, I would help set them up in their on business after that.

Well...I have $240,000 in 529 plans. I know the usual routes....save for grandkids, etc. But has anybody used their 529 plans to do something interesting like attend the American University in Rome? I don't want to go back an get a masters...but taking some classes in a new city or country would be interesting.

Anybody?
