Kids Accounts For Saving And Investing

Ray Martin in his CBS MoneyWatch blog What Works describes 3 account categories in which adults can set up for their children.

Individuals who want to give their children or grandchildren larger financial gifts but want to maintain some control as to how the money is managed and when the children receive it should consider a simple grantor trust.
