I guess I will start putting $2400 per year in there. I'm sure after 18 years that should pay for any college in the state even at current rate increases of 6% b


That is $43,200. Would barely cover 4 years of tuition.

Failed math? The $43,200 is the amount he would contribute over the 18 years. You are completely ignoring compound interest and the states matching benefits percentage.

ETA
200/month for 18 years at 4% interest = $68361
200/month for 18 years at 6% interest = $85140
