I've been lucky enough to be asked to be a godfather for 2 of my nephews when they were born. Both are going to attend college and trade school this fall.

I started saving $25 a month and occasional birthdays into a 529. I get to send 4 and 5 figure checks to schools for their benefit and it's a great feeling. Definitely don't overlook the power of programs like the MOST 529 Plan to not only receive tax benefits but also grow your contributions in the market for the benefit of someone you love!
