An Overview of Annuities
An annuity is a financial product designed to provide a steady income stream over a specified period or for life, typically used as a retirement investment.
Before You Decide:
If you are considering purchasing an annuity call us to discuss the following:
- The rating of the insurance company (indicating their financial strength) issuing the annuity, particularly in the case of a fixed annuity.
- Understand the fees you will pay.
- Understand that if you are considering a withdrawal from an annuity it may be subject to taxes and a 10% federal penalty if taken prior to 59 1/2 years of age
