Just thinking about the cost of college is frightening. Figuring out how to come up with the money can be even scarier! The Gerber Life College Plan was designed to help busy parents save for tomorrow – safely and easily.
How it works:
The Gerber Life College Plan combines saving for college and adult life insurance into one simple plan. With it you’ll enjoy:
- The only college plan that’s also adult life insurance
- Affordable, fixed payments
- Stable growth that never loses value
- Guaranteed payout of $10,000 to $150,000
- Flexibility to use the money for anything, even expenses not related to college
All you do is save a fixed amount of money each month for a set length of time (a “term,” in life insurance language). During this time, the child’s parent will enjoy full life insurance protection. At the end of the term, the policy delivers a guaranteed cash payout to use for college expenses (or anything else).
Head over to the Gerber Life Insurance Facebook page for your chance to contribute your baby’s photos to the Project Open Book picture mosaic! Gerber Life will be donating $10,000 to Reading Is Fundamental (RIF) to help spread the love of reading.
I entered with one of my favorite photos from Bella’s first birthday. The process is simple and only takes a couple minutes. By uploading your photo, you will be entered to win several prizes including a $1,000 Visa gift card!

I have partnered with Gerber to bring you this post and received compensation for my time. All thoughts and opinions remain my own, as always.
We have a college savings plan for our boys!
We put money away for it each month.
Yes, we have been contributing monthly to a 529 plan ever since my daughter was born.

We are taking an opposite approach right now and paying off our debt (including the house) so we can just pay for college when the time comes.
We haven’t saved at all. We have already talked to the boys about the need for scholarships, working etc. We will help if we can and if something changes we will save what we can but there just isn’t anything to put away now.
We made the mistake of not saving for our children’s college and now have mega student loans we are paying off. We have started a savings account for our little grandson and make a deposit each payday.
We put half of all of her money she receives as gifts into a bank account. We also contribute to that bank account.
We put all their gifts into an investment account. It adds up!
529 plan all the way!
I use Upromise among other things.
Invest through 529
I haven’t been able to save yet, but hopefully soon.
We have a basic savings account open now where a portion of our checks automatically goes into it.
I plan to open a 529 account.

We have 5 kids and it’s never to late to start saving. We do weekly savings and even if we can only put in $5 a week per child, it’s better than none.
There is no extra money for us to be saving right now. I’m a stay at home mom and as soon as they get ready to go to college, I will go back to work to help pay for it.

I put $50 a week into a savings account for my kids future.
