Preparing For Children's Future

So I am about to become a new Dad! My wife and I have a baby boy due end of June 2022 and I am wanting to get some advice as a new parent as to what are some of the ways that you all have prepared for your kids future?

I always loved the idea that Brandon Turner shared to buy a property for each kid and try and have it paid off by the time they are 18. So while I would like to try and do that also, I wanted to get any other recommendations or stories of what you all have done.

- Simple Savings Account or a CD?

- Mutual or Index Fund? 

- Whole Life or a IUL?

- Crypto, Gold, etc..? 

- Box Buried in the back yard?

Would love any input @Mindy Jensen @Scott Trench
