Hey, I almost forgot about my Upromise account. I opened it back in 2001. Just looked today for the first time in maybe 2 years and I’ve accumulated $238. Mostly on Gas and groceries in 15-20 cent increments. If I keep up this pace, it will buy exactly one textbook freshman year.
Re: 529
When I opened the CA 529 it was TIAA_CREF, which had decent options. I also thought they might eventually provide a tax break, which was not such a stretch of the imagination back in 2001. I should probably switch to a better plan, but I’ve been contributing on autopilot for so long and I’m lazy.
