Florida Prepaid Twitter Chat

This is the season to start planning for your child’s college education, although it might seem like it’s light years away.

You may be knee-deep in diapers and teething remedies. Perhaps you are being introduced to common core math and sight words for the first time since your own Kindergarten experience.

Either way, your child’s education has started and it’s not going to end for many years.

Join us in a fun Twitter chat to learn the ins and outs of Florida Prepaid College Plans.

For as little as $47/ month, you can check “college planning” off your to-do list. There are even clever strategies of how you can enlist the help of relatives and grandparents, so the financial burden doesn’t rest solely on your shoulders.

Learn more about the available plans. I bet, there is one that will meet your college planning needs: Florida Prepaid College Plan Information
