Thanks.
Emir Obozzo and his Sunni Left wing thugs have had their eyes on our IRAs, 401k’s and other retirement plans for a long time. So coveting after 529’s is predictable and not surprising.
Hopefully, my grand kids will have spent their 529 money deposited by hopeful older relatives on both sides.
If they are the right ages, they may have a shot at using the money for its intended purposes. And I agree about the eventual fate of the 401/IRAs. (What they will probably do there, and some countries are doing as a test, is giving folks a choice between keeping and using their 401k/IRA money or keeping and using SS - one or the other, but not both.) But they don’t seem to be as far down that road as they are with the college funds. And I expect them to start with the Roths, so I do avoid those.
You are wrong on that. Hillary (through her close friend Huma)is tied the Sunnie (as are the Bush crowd). Obama appears to have ties to the Shi'ites.
