2019 #StartingIsBelieving TWEETY FIESTA w/ @FloridaPrepaid !!

This is a sponsored post on behalf of Bloggin’ Mamas & the Florida Prepaid College Board. All opinions expressed are my own.

HolaHolaHola Beautifuls!

Babushka knows it's past media noche, but when she saw the email from Bloggin' Mamas saying we were having a Tweety Fiesta for Florida Prepaid College el Lunes, the post had to go out- de alegria!! If you've been reading BB's posts ya saben that The Trio were all recipients of this great College plan and now The Grands too. Truly a sponsor worth sharing with familia.

The Florida Prepaid College Savings Plan open enrollment period is almost over!!! This is the one time each year in which you can sign up for one of five plans. The open enrollment period runs through April 30, 2019. To learn more about these plans, visit: MyFloridaPrepaid.com And if you decide to sign-up for a plan, use our code: CHAT19 to receive $30 off the application fee (normally $50).

With just a few days remaining in its 30^th anniversary Open Enrollment period, the Florida Prepaid College Board is encouraging families to join the more than 20,000 who have already locked in future college tuition costs this year by signing up for one of six affordable Florida Prepaid College Plans. Open Enrollment ends April 30, 2019 and it is the only time each year that families can lock in the price of one of the Florida Prepaid College Board’s prepaid tuition plans. Prices this year start at just $47 per month. As a bonus for getting college savings on track this year, all 2019 Florida Prepaid Plan enrollees will get 50% off LEGOLAND ® Florida park tickets for up to three family members including the beneficiary. LEGOLAND ® Florida and Florida Prepaid have come together to encourage Florida families to support their children’s imagination, while saving for their college education.

$529 Towards The Grands Education. ESOOOO!!! #CollegeSavingsPlan #StartingIsBelieving #sweepstakes ad

This is a sponsored post between Florida Prepaid College and Bloggin' Mamas. Opinions and love expressed are all Babushka's.

HolaHolaHola Beautifuls!!!

With 6 Grands, you KNOW Babushka has to share this info correcto??  This isn't la primera vez that BB writes about the Florida Prepaid College gente.  Sometimes BB feels like they're parte de la familia. Bueno, actually they are. Over 20 years, first with The Trio and now con los nietos. A wonderful way for Florida residents to start their little loved ones on the path toward higher education. Y ahora an even bigger incentive. A giveaway to 10 families of $529 to go towards college. Can BB get an ESOOO!!??!!

Here are the details of the Florida 529 Savings Plan Scholarship Giveaway:

What: The Florida 529 Savings Plan Scholarship Program and you could be one of 10 lucky winners of a $529 scholarship deposited into a Florida 529 Savings Plan account.

When: Enter anytime between May 15 and June 11

How: Visit florida529savingsplanscholarship.com daily

Not quite sure what the 529 Savings plan es or how to start? Aqui tienes:

What is a 529 Savings Plan?

529 savings plans are named after section 529 of the Internal Revenue Code 26 U.S.C. § 529 and are designed to encourage saving for future higher education expenses of a designated beneficiary. Many states offer 529 savings plan options, including Florida Prepaid.

Money from a 529 plan can be used for tuition, fees, books, supplies and equipment required for study at any accredited college, university or vocational school in the United States and at some foreign universities. The money can also be used for room and board, as long as the fund beneficiary is at least a half-time student. Off-campus housing costs are covered up to the allowance for room and board that the college includes in its cost of attendance for federal financial-aid purposes. Qualified education expenses do not include student loans and student loan interest. There is legislation currently going through Congress that will expand the qualified expenses.

The Florida 529 Savings Plan – offered by Florida Prepaid

The Florida 529 Savings Plan can be started at anytime and only requires a $25 initial deposit to open. Even if you can’t save for your child’s entire college education, starting something is always better than doing nothing. The funds in a Florida 529 Savings Plan can be used for any qualified higher educational expense, including tuition, room & board, textbooks, graduate school and much more. This gives you extreme flexibility to use the funds as you see fit, for whatever your child may need. And should those needs change during his/her college years, individuals are free to adjust as well.

The Florida 529 Savings Plan offers you the ultimate in flexibility. Simply choose from the investment options, then contribute as much and as often as you’d like to suit your budget and goals. Each investment option, such as our popular age-based option that automatically allocates contributions based on the age of the child, is independently run by professional investment managers. There are 11 investment options let you invest in any way you feel comfortable. From more aggressive to more conservative options, and with age-based and fully customized approaches, you have as much control as you want over how much you invest and where it’s invested. And as the years go by, you’re free to change contribution amounts and how they are allocated at any time.

BUENISIMO VERDAD?? See the website for more informacion.

Because Kaching! Is one of the loveliest sonidos ever.

Especially when it goes to a loved one's future.

Not enter this one?? JU SO FONII!!!

BB's already got 3 entries in.

Buena Suerte Beautifuls!

Time is Precious & So Is Education. Prepare Ahora porque #StartingIsBelieving w/ @FloridaPrepaid ad

Babushka is a Bloggin' Mamas Florida Prepaid Mamabassador and is compensated for this post, pero as stated before, the real compensation comes with knowing BB's provided The Trio & now The Grands with an ayudita in their future. Opinions stated are 100% Babushka's.

MyFloridaPrepaid.com

HolaHolaHola Beautifuls!

There's a great quote on the Florida Prepaid Main Site page-

Your little one will be ready for college before you’re ready to let them go.
 Start saving today.

They ain't just whistlin' La Guantanamera Beautifuls!

It was just ayer that Babushka was saving for The Trio's college education, and now she's getting ready to save for Grands #5!! El tiempo is a fast traveler and the best travel plan is saving for their college/university tiempo ahora. Go ahead and start. What's the peor that could happen?  Here are some misconceptions and fears que BB's gonna stop right now.  

You do not lose your monies nor your plans if you move out of Florida, AND Florida Prepaid isn’t restricted to Florida schools; the amount covered by your Prepaid Plan can be used at schools nationwide. Not only that, pero if you move out of Florida after purchasing a Prepaid Plan, your child would still be billed at in-state tuition rates when using their plan at a Florida college or state university.


And what if your child decides classrooms aren't para ellos? Este BB knows first hand. My son MAC decided to skip university and is now a Master Electrician. So don't worry If your child doesn’t go to college, you can change the beneficiary of the Prepaid Plan or get your money back. Ahora the dinero Babushka had on the plan for him,he put towards Rinquincaya's, his son's, education. Nothing lost, and now the next generation's future is gained.

It doesn't take a lot to help in your loved ones future. The earlier you start, the younger they are, the lower the monthly cost. Imagine the possibilities you give them, how your confidence in their potential is shown with the Florida Prepaid College Board plans.

Go ahead and sign up, porque you know you want to. You want to let them know how much potential they have and what an education will give them. Pa' luego es tarde because their time to attend college will arrive much faster than you expect. Open Enrollment ends on Feb.28, 2017 #StartingisBelieving - in all of you.

BB2U

Ok, Babushka knows there are some questions todavia. Here it is straight from ellos-

"Florida Prepaid College Plans allow you to prepay the future cost of college. When your child is ready for college, the plan pays the tuition, tuition differential fee and other specified fees covered under the plan.

Guaranteed – Every Prepaid Plan is guaranteed by the State of Florida, so you will never lose your investment.

Nationwide – Even if your child attends an out-of-state or private college, the plan will pay the same amount as it would pay at a public college or university in Florida.

Scholarships – If your child receives a scholarship, you can get a refund for the same amount as the plan would pay a public college or university in Florida.

10 Years – Your child has up to 10 years after his or her year of projected enrollment to use the plan."

So now that your hesitations and qualms se terminaron, BB not give you one more ayudita?

  JU SO FONII!!!

Use the PromoCode BLOG1617 to save 50% of the enrollment fee.

HolaHolaHola Beautifuls!!

No se about y'all but that thought of The Grands having to pay back student loans mete miedo. If BB didn't already have sexy silver lifelites before, they'd definitely come in with that! Ahora, we all want our hijos de succeed and sabemos that their odds are better with a college degree, but what about the extra burden put on them if they had to pay it all themselves? Felizmente there are lots of options to lighten their load, porque Babushka not do something to ayudar? JU SO FONII!!!

http://www.myfloridaprepaid.com/what-we-offer/

Vieron all the plans available? And you can combine them! For Dr. J, Babushka will get the 2 year Florida College Plan and his parents and other abuelos can each get one year for him too. That way his 4 years are covered. ESO! So there will be NO STUDENT DEBT.

ESSSSSOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!

So what plans will you be getting for your little ones?

Gifts for The Grands- @FloridaPrepaid A Gift They'll Never Outgrow

Babushka is part of Florida College Prepaid & Bloggin' Mamas Mama'bassadors program, but even if she weren't, the opinions are still 100% BB.  Been a fan of them for years.

HolaHolaHola Beautifuls!

The holidays are here and the letters to Santi Clo have been sent.  A wonderful thing isn't it to see the faces of hope,expectation and joy in our childrens' eyes??  Will that expression still be there a week after? A month despues? In a year's time?? Quee?? Ok si, a bit of a downer, pero BB leave you like that?  JU SO FONII!!! You know Babushka better than eso. But first, a little historia...

Reading The Grands "what I want from Santa" list, BB couldn't help but remember standing in line for hours to get my son MAC the Power Rangers he had wanted. Got him the complete set. Only to have him sell them at a garage sale 2 years later for $20. Wow and woah. With time, we both have learned what a real gift is and how to value them. Now he's giving his unused portion of the Florida College Prepaid Plan to his son. Again, wow and woah.  Only this time, it's a positive thing.

Babushka has written before about the Florida College Prepaid Plan, how The Trio have used the plan, how it's saved us all headaches and heartaches by having it.  Hopefully The Grands won't have the headaches of student loan debt if BB has her say.  Isn't it wonderful that the opcion is open to us? 

Another option Babushka loves is the Florida 529 Savings Plan .  This is a plan that can be opened at anytime, for a student of any age, to be used in any US college or university.  BB would use this along side the Prepaid Plan to cover incidentals not cubierto (like extra food; abuela al fin). Matter of fact, wouldn't this look great in your child's stocking?

The gift they'll never outgrow, return, or sell at a garage sale.  A lifelong regalo that'll be around, brightning their holidays for years to come. And don't worry if Santi Clo can't get it into their stockings, the open enrollment is until February 29, so the Reyes can definitely leave it.
