but you can transfer money between accounts. I put in monthly at the amount that maximizes the tax deduction.

You can change the beneficiary, you don't have to have 1 per kid

We have one per child. I believe funds are transferable between siblings

I targeted 10k per kid or at least 4 semesters at a church school.
