Daughter is 3 years old. Started a 529 LA Start plan for her. Below is how I have allocated my contributions. Any thoughts?

50% VASGX
20% VITNX
10% VSISX
10% VMISX
10% VLCSX

Hang on. Let me plug those into my computer and see which ones will be the best earners in 20 years. BRB

That's a good group overall, but you've got a lot of overlap. VASGX is meant to be a one-fund portfolio.

For example, it holds 56% VITNX. You are holding an extra 20% in your portfolio. Also, VITNX is a total market fund, so it represents VSISX, VMISX and VLCSX.

Like I said, it's a good group of funds. But if it were me, I'd put it all in VASGX.

Do the 529s offer any amount match or is just a tax free account? (pre or post earnings?)

Grats on getting this started. I'm with VEST so can't comment on the investments but I would imagine you are fine.
