A Beautiful Bloom

Spring has sprung, flowers are blooming, birds are singing. Spring! A time of new beginnings, re-birth, spring cleaning, out with the old & in with the new, a time for hope and change in new life not yet fully seen. A great chance to re-evaluate our priorities and think about changes to make in the spirit of renewal & optimism.

Just as a blooming plant or beautiful flower starts from its smallest form as a seed, it grows with increasing potential. The same is true for our loved ones, our children. They need nourishment & care to grow to their full potential. By starting a financial plan for them now, you are setting them up for future success:

Your child will go to college. Your child will thrive & prosper.

And you can make it happen! A 529 Pre-Paid Tuition Plan may be the best way to do that for your newborn infant.

An education is more than just about going to school. Gaining an education and utilizing it in school, in work, and throughout life is the goal. Imagine the limitless possibilities of what your newborn daughter or son may do 10, 20, 30 years from now. But it all starts from a seed! Plant the idea and feed it with TLC, nurture the soil so it will be fertile & open to new ideas. When you take time to plant the seeds now with a 529 Prepaid Tuition Plan you will be amazed at what emerges when they become young adults.

For the baby in your life who will go to college one day, consider doing something that offers hope & potential for their future. Right now is the perfect time to lock in the costs of college today for the baby who will get that degree years from now. You have the best choices, the lowest prices, the most options today. If it’s true you reap what you sow, then you have no time to waste. Start planning for their future college tuition today.

General Enrollment season has just closed, but we’re in full swing with College Illinois! 529 Pre-Paid Tuition enrollment for infants under age 1. Now is the time to look ahead to what’s possible. Seedlings need water, roses need pruning and hydrangeas need sunlight. So too do our young people. They need the nourishment that only a higher education can provide.

Time moves forward. It doesn’t stop, and it never slows down. When you nourish your children you can start planning for their college savings now-- and gain the peace of mind that only a 529 Pre-Paid Tuition Plan can provide.

Here’s to a beautiful spring!
