We speak to Maire Pelletier from Finance Authority Of Maine about NextGen 529

NextGen 529 is a tax advantaged investment account which can be used to save for education after high school. Many Maine families use NextGen 529 to help afford higher education.  Once families have a NextGen 529 account, they can add to it whatever amount they can, when they can. Even $5 a month can really add up over time. Families can learn more about NextGen 529 and get started on opening an account online at NextGenforME.com
