RETIREMENT PLANNING
Whether five years away or 25 years down the road, planning for retirement is something, each of us needs to consider. Making intelligent choices about how much money you save and what retirement savings plan you use can mean the difference between having the income you need in retirement to live the lifestyle you want or struggling financially.
TAX-FREE RETIREMENT ANNUITIES
What is an Annuity?
An annuity is a contract between you and an insurance company in which you make a lump sum payment or series of payments and in return obtain regular disbursements beginning either immediately or at some point in the future.
The goal of annuity is to provide a steady stream of income during retirement. Funds accrue on a tax-deferred basis, and like 401(k) contributions can only be withdrawn without penalty after age 59.5.
Many aspects of an annuity can be tailored to the specific needs of the recipient. In addition to choosing between a lump sum payment or a series of payments to the insurer, you can choose when you want to annuitize your contributions – that is, start receiving payments. An annuity that begins paying out immediately is referred to as an immediate annuity, while one that starts at a preset date in the future is called a deferred annuity.
Annuities are income for Life
Saving for retirement is one of the greatest financial challenges facing Americans today. Company pension plans are a thing of the past, Social Security faces a questionable future, and 401(k) and IRA plans have maximum contribution levels that could limit your savings. With an annuity, you can benefit from tax-deferred savings and ensure that you have a guaranteed income in retirement.
HOW CAN AN ANNUITY HELP YOU?
Do you know how much money you will need in retirement? Have you considered what could happen if you outlive your retirement savings? No matter how well you plan, factors like inflation, tax hikes and increased medical expenses can potentially eat away at your retirement savings, forcing you to suffer a lower quality of life or rely on your family for financial support in your golden years. An annuity can help you avoid a future dilemma and safeguard your financial security by providing you with guaranteed income throughout retirement. In fact, you can structure an annuity to pay you for the rest of your life, even if you live to be 100. You can also use annuities to transfer wealth to the next generation while avoiding probate.
The best part? There are no monthly premiums, and your annuity is guaranteed to never lose money.
