If you&#x27;re in the U.S., you should learn about tax-advantaged educational savings accounts, such as Coverdell accounts:<p><a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.irs.gov&#x2F;taxtopics&#x2F;tc310.html" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.irs.gov&#x2F;taxtopics&#x2F;tc310.html</a><p>If you&#x27;re completely new to investing in general, you should learn about basic issues of investing, such as the impact of fees on the long-term returns of investments. For example, directly opening a mutual fund account with a low-cost provider like Vanguard is usually a much better deal than going through the sales people at your local bank (who will gouge you on fees).
