529 College Savings Plan
from AllState

The Allstate 529 College Savings Plan offers a great tax-advantaged way to save for higher education. Each state individually designates the money manager for your funds. Two categories of plans are offered - an age-based and fixed plan. The age-based plan is a variable rate plan that invests more aggressively the farther your child is away from college, and the fixed plan locks in an interest rate and guarantees a certain rate of return.

All State's 529 plan is a great way to save for your children's future education. The age plan is the difference here, allowing you to save even more for your child, depending on how soon until they will need the money and reach higher education.. You can also go for the traditional plan, as well, as you obtain a fixed and reliable rate so you'll know exactly what you'll save and have available when the time comes.
