"Withdrawals from 529 plans are tax-free as long as they're used for qualified educational expenses. Withdrawals from Trump accounts would have fewer restrictions on their uses, but are taxed at long-term capital gains rates.... Trump accounts would be funded at birth and allow for additional contributions each year, while custodial Roth IRAs require a child to have earned income during the year in order to contribute."

"23 percent of all U.S. adults say they've ramped up retirement saving during the past 12 months -- the best showing in six years of polling. And it's younger millennials between ages 18 and 26 who are the most likely (at 30 percent) to say they're saving more.... A strengthening job market and auto-enrollment into company retirement plans have helped millennials get a head start on retirement saving, while older generations have had help fortifying their nest eggs from a steady-as-she-goes economy."

"It's ironic that employees of large companies are suing their employers, because large companies tend to offer the cheapest plans ... So in the International Paper settlement, is $30 million enough to make restitution? If [the plaintiff's attorney] gets 30 percent, that's a $9 million payday for him and his firm. If the balance were to get evenly distributed among 70,000 401(k) participants (which is not how it will be apportioned), each of the participants would get $300 in their account. It's not a big payday for plan participants, that's for sure."
