A woman has opened college savings accounts for her three nieces and nephew, aiming to cover one-third of their future education costs.

She plans to teach the kids about the costs of college and the importance of making informed choices. While the accounts are intended for education, the aunt is open to other uses, like starting a business or buying a home. However, she will control the funds and set age requirements for withdrawals.
