The Hidden Risk for Nevada Families
The Nevada 529 College Savings Plans promises tax-free growth for education - and it delivers on that promise. But what happens when life doesn't go according to plan?
Today's reality: trade schools, gap years, entrepreneurship, and non-traditional paths are increasingly common. Locking your child's savings to education-only expenses is a gamble on a future you can't predict.
- Your child decides college isn't for them? 10% federal penalty on earnings only penalty + taxes
- They get a full scholarship? Money still restricted
- Market crashes before freshman year? No principal protection
- They need funds for a first home? Not a qualified expense
