In this episode of the Directed IRA Podcast, attorneys Mat Sorensen and Mark J. Kohler unveil a powerful and often overlooked strategy for funding your child’s college education without relying solely on a 529 plan.

This episode is for business owners, parents, and investors looking for a smarter tax efficient way to save for education. Whether you’re new to self directing or already using these tools for retirement, this strategy could reshape how you approach college planning and family wealth building.
