I've been looking into starting a 529 plan for my daughter, but have realized that the state-specific nature of the plans make it difficult to compare, especially since good advice for a person in state A might not apply to a person in state B.
I live in Alabama, and have perused Alabama's 529 plan. However, the
529's in other states look more appealing in some ways. My question is, based on Alabama's 529 plan and tax code, would it be better to invest in Alabama's 529 plan, or another state (such as Colorado or Virginia)? I realize I'll have to do more studying to make a decision, but any advice or pointers that could save time is always welcome.Thanks in advance! Dave
