Looking to create a Louisiana 529 START account for my kids colleges expenses. Anyone with experience getting reimbursed after eligible purchases etc?

I havent pulled anything out but have right at 25k and have been contributing small amounts each month for each kid.

All I know is you're allowed 10k per year per kid.

I opened start accounts many years ago and it performed very well.
I also had other 529 accts with brokers. They did well too.

Getting the money out of the start acct is a pain in the arse. Paperwork and it takes several days for them to send it to you. Getting it out of broker account is simple.

If I had it to do again, I’d avoid the START plan
