RE: Using Mutual Funds for kids education

Great topic. Planning for education costs is one of the most important financial goals for any family.
​The lump-sum investment idea is interesting for its potential for maximum compounding. I'm curious about your thoughts on how this compares to a Systematic Investment Plan (SIP) strategy, where one invests a smaller amount monthly?
​SIPs can average out the purchase cost over time and might be more accessible for many families than a large initial investment. Do you think one method has a clear advantage over the other for this specific goal? Thanks for getting this important conversation started.
