In this video, I'm going to go over exactly what a 529 College Savings Plan is and walk you through the different key factors you should be looking for when you're considering opening one up. Simply defined, a 529 is a state sponsored tax advantaged education savings plan designed to be used for qualifying educational expenses, including school tuition, room & board fees, books & supplies and even college meal plans.

That lifetime $35,000 limit is per person. And, you can do this transfer regardless of your income. Which is a big potential benefit for high income households who earn too much to be able to do regular Roth IRA contributions.
