I've got one for both of my kids. It's a small defined benefit plan from a former employer that I've directed into a 529. I think it puts in around $250 a month. I haven't even looked at it in probably a year or two, but it's probably got around $30k in it by now. My oldest is 8, so it should be enough to get him through college by the time he's 18 and hopefully have enough left over to get our youngest most of the way there. A scholarship still wouldn't hurt, though.
