Which 529 account every one using and how do you like it. Invested in any specific funds or index funds? For me, no state tax, so looking for any good fund that doesn’t have state residency requirements

Lots a good option. I don’t think any have residency requirements, but could be wrong. You could just use a plan that your brokerage offers if you want to keep it in one place. I use the Illinois plan since I get a deduction, and it is good

That is 5 state options. All you need to do is look into them and only 1 needs to be good. I don’t see the issue unless they all stink

Same boat. Got no good answers when I was asking. Went with vanguard nevada plan. Just signed up so have no feedback yet but overall fees are pretty low. You have to make an initial contribution of $3k and get a choice of an age based fund, or their index funds or a mix if you want

We have NYS because we are residents and get state income tax deductions

Awesome, did you do it directly on their site?

Oops, didn’t realize hit the wrong reply button. Yes responding to MC1 NYS comment. I know West Virginia and NYS plans are great with performance and low fees. But Fidelity won’t offer them. I don’t particularly like what they are offering. Just thought would be good if everything is in one place. I probably have to set it up on the plan’s website rather than Fidelity. Btw, from WA state.

Should be able to do $100k per year. (iii) If rates go down below 4.5ish % for 15 year fixed, refinance and stop aggressive payment. Thoughts on this approach?
