Does it make any sense to save for college by putting the money in a savings account? I know someone who does this and has about 40K in the account so far and her child will be needing the money for college in about ten years.
The only advantage I can see to a savings account, is that the money is safe. You can't lose any of it, as you could with an investment. Is this just an option for people who can't deal with the risk of losing money in an investment account?
