How can investing in mutual funds help me reach my college savings and retirement goals?

Most tax-advantaged college and retirement savings vehicles, for example Individual Retirement Accounts (IRAs), 401(k) retirement plans and 529 college savings plans, can be invested in mutual funds.
When you choose to make a mutual fund investment as part of a tax-advantage retirement or college savings plan, taxes are not payable until the funds are actually withdrawn, allowing you to increase the value of your investment through the power of tax-deferred compounding.
