Joseph Hurley, C.P.A. Joe Hurley launched Savingforcollege.com in 1999 while working as a tax CPA in Rochester, New York. He wrote and self-published the book The Best Way to Save for College--A Complete Guide to 529 Plans which has sold over 100,000 copies. Through the years Joe and his wife Ginny opened accounts with 529 plans in 34 states for their two children, both of whom are now graduated from college. (The reason for so many different accounts was to facilitate research of 529 plans.) Joe continues to write and speak about 529 plans and other college-savings topics while at the same time establishing Kettle Ridge Farm (maple syrup, honey, and shiitake mushrooms) and attending community college part-time with leftover 529 funds. --- Kathryn Flynn Kathryn is Content Director at Savingforcollege.com.
