Yogi, Savings bonds are tax deferred, too. I remember all the arguments when my Company Commander forced me to buy them so he could get a 100% participation plaque from the Army.

>>Only 18.7 percent correctly said stocks likely would offer the highest growth over 18 years of saving for a child's education,<<

the testers flunk, too, so the students are in good hands. an intelligent person would ask, from what valuation level?

they'd get the question wrong since it isn't even remotely answerable from the given information - you have to assume way too much!

like, am i already 100 years old? if so, it wouldn't return much to ME ;-)

i HATE tests that question like that.
