Setting up a Trust fund for a Newborn (not family member)?
How would i go about Setting up a Trust fund for a Newborn who is not a blood relative/Family member? My Best friend will be having a baby in June, and i would like to set up a trust/savings/? for him to use when he turns 18. I was thinking about a college fund but i dont want the funds to be restricted for college use only. Here are some things that i am thinking about -
- Do I put it in the childs name, my name or parents name?
- What would yeild the best interest?
- What about taxes? if it is interest earned, who would pay the taxes? or are there even taxes?
- What would be the best kind of bank to do this at?
- I will be depositing money every year for birthday too

Thank you for all your advice! Links to articals are welcomed , but i would appreciate first hand knowledge.
Thank you for your answers! it helped a lot, now i just need to decided where to open up the account!
