What benefit would be in it for the bar owner? It would be interesting to the patrons… but interesting enough to drive business to the bar? Probably not.Your asking bar owners to pony up $$ for this device… run power and wiring to put them in… in wet walls – so there are pipes and stuff in the walls which makes it a more complicated job.
The benefit is to the customer… but the expense and work is on the bar owner… Not a good business model.

ParticipantIf they change the rules, I’ll adjust my plans. Until they change them… I’ll keep saving in 529’s and hoping for the best.
If they look at home equity, then I can’t do anything about that.
I know the rule used to be that they considered 20% of the parents assets as available – but 100% of the kids assets. So a UGMA puts it in the 100% bucket since it’s owned by the kid.
I can only save/plan based on the rules as they exist. I haven’t figured out how to predict the future.

Participant[quote=looking]I had heard that 529s set up by parents are counted toward the kid’s financial aid but that if the child has a 529 set up by someone else (ie. grandparent) that it doesn’t count. Does anyone know if this is true??[/quote]
It sounds like this *may* be true…
http://www.savingforcollege.com/articles/five-things-to-know-about-529s-and-financial-aidBut some school financial aid offices count 529 income that is distributed to support a kid in college.
I know in our case, it was a non-issue. My dad originally set up the 529’s… but he died and I inherited them. (Kids remained the beneficiaries.)
Also – I’m less worried about how the 529’s will effect financial aid… I’m hoping to be retired – so NO wage income to consider. That’s one advantage to being an older parent.Participant[quote=looking]I had heard that 529s set up by parents are counted toward the kid’s financial aid but that if the child has a 529 set up by someone else (ie. grandparent) that it doesn’t count.
