Congrats dude! Those are the best kind!
Another tax break, set up an educational trust NOW! I did and a small investment then allowed my kids to attend Ivy League universities. My daughter is in her Masters finals at the University of Vienna. You have to plan ahead. Just passing on a suggestion that saved me a bundle later.

Congrats to you! What they are sayin is right about putting some money aside right now. 2K, put in a mutual fund today will allow him to go to school of choice. PM me if you want suggestions, I used to have a securities license and know a little about this. All the best, Met.
