Funding a child’s or grandchild’s education costs is a noble goal. Whether you’re paying tuition costs now or saving for the future, it’s important to determine if your education strategy is compatible with achieving your retirement income and related financial objectives. Tax considerations and retirement income needs must be carefully weighed and evaluated before choosing a specific strategy. It’s important to remember that while education expenses can be funded through borrowing, retirement expenses cannot.
