@fireplaybook: One of the greatest financial gifts you can give your kids isn’t money. It’s time. Give even a modest amount of money decades to compound, and the results can be pretty incredible. But choosing where to put that money matters too. A 529 can be great for education. A custodial Roth IRA can be incredibly powerful once a child has earned income. UTMA/UGMA accounts offer flexibility. Coverdell ESAs have their own education benefits. And Trump Accounts add another option for families to consider. There’s no single “best” account for every child. The better question is: What is the money for? Education? Retirement? A first home? General investing? A financial head start? Start with the goal. Learn the rules. Pick the account that fits. Then give compounding as much time as possible. Your kids may not appreciate it today. Their 30-year-old selves probably will. 2026 figures shown.
