EDUCATIONAL AND CUSTODIAL ACCOUNTS

Saving for education—elementary school, high school, college, or all three—can be quite challenging, and may become more so as tuition costs continue to rise. One of the keys to successful education planning is getting started early.

At Wachovia Securities, we feel strongly that when you invest in careful planning today, you may be well rewarded tomorrow. Our Financial Advisors can help estimate the potential cost of educating your children, determine how much you need to save, and help you choose the education savings strategy that’s appropriate for your needs.
