January is the month for resolutions as well all know, but February is even more exciting! It is a month for action! After making plans and setting goals, this is the perfect time to make them realities. Especially if your goals and plans include planning for college! It isn’t too late to start enjoying the advantages of a Florida Prepaid 529 Plan.
This post is sponsored by the Florida Prepaid College Board, through my role as a Believer

If you have been considering options to help secure a bright future for your children, there are so many advantages to starting a 529 Plan with Florida Prepaid. There are also a few misconceptions that I want to address with you to make your decision easier since time is of the essence! But, sometimes waiting can have its own advantages, like this great opportunity to save with our PROMO CODE TAYLOR1718
Misconception #1
Planning with Florida Prepaid 529 Plans means my child must attend a Florida college.
While Florida offers some amazing universities that would be proud to have your student on campus, the truth is that a Florida Prepaid 529 Plan can be used to cover expenses at schools nationwide. There is no risk in limiting your child to a Florida school when you invest in the future with a Florida Prepaid Plan.
Misconception #2
If my child chooses not to go to college, I am losing out on all of that money.
While it would be nice to plan for college and have no worries about what your children will plan to do as they become adults, that simply isn’t the case! Florida Prepaid understands that. If your child doesn’t go to college, you can change the beneficiary of the Prepaid Plan or get your money back. That fact was a relief to me! I want my boys to know they can go to school without accumulating a ton of debt from student loans and credit cards, but I don’t want them to feel pressured to do anything based on money!
Saving for college is an expense, but the truth is, giving the gift of the future through smart saving and planning is worth every cent of that expense. Using a prepaid plan is a risk-free way to hold open a door to a great education because these plans are backed by the State of Florida, so you never have to worry about losing the money you have invested in the plan.
In addition to being a worry-free option for families, 529 Plans are also flexible. Your child may not want to attend college right away, but they will have a window of time to enroll that is generous enough to allow your child time to consider what they want to do, study and become!
February is a time for action if your plans for 2018 include getting a jump on saving for college now is the perfect time to do that. Now that we have tackled one of the important things on our 2018 plan, I can’t wait to hear how you are doing on your other resolutions!
