M*: Not Using A 529? $237 Billion Left On The Table

FYI: This week, Morningstar released our annual ratings of 529 college savings plans showing the best among 62 options.

We've also done something new with this round of ratings. We added a detailed analysis of what would happen if American households used 529s to their fullest. The results were quite surprising. We estimate that American families leave over $200 billion on the table by not using 529s for college savings. We've published the full analysis in our new report, New Lessons About 529s, which you can download here.
