Tech without a doubt. I would say that marketing is a close second. I have worked in both industries and the work life balance was spectacular. You pretty much make your own hours. There are also a lot of cool events you get to go to

I think Education also offers great benefits either by the Local, State or Federal level.

Of the two options you provided…I’d suggest Tech has a better pedigree of offering top notch and affordable benefits.

I'm in the Finance industry and I'm happy with what my company/industry is offering, but I have some friends who are in the Tech industry and I'm a bit envious! They have good salaries, unlimited PTO, etc.

529 Plan VERSUS Prepaid

We live in Florida and currently have a Freshman in High School and a 16 month old. We hear from our friends and family with college bound children "I wish we would have done Florida PrePaid." After obviously ignoring this for years, we are finally trying to do it before "it's too late" for both children.

Does anyone have recommendations on which plan to go with for each child? I once did the pros and cons on a whiteboard and it seemed like 529 was better.
