Do annuities fit into your retirement income plan? You may see ads floating around on the internet with titles like “I hate annuities and why you should too.” Are annuities something you should hate? Probably not, not more than you should hate a hammer when what you need is a screwdriver. An annuity is a tool. If its the right tool for the job, than there is nothing to hate.
Unfortunately, annuities get a bad rap for many reasons varying from high fees, overhyped sales pitches, commissions, tax challenges and complexity. All those reasons are valid for certain types of annuities in certain situations. But they’re not valid for all annuities in any situation.
In this webinar, we’ll address the complexity of annuities and you’ll leave with an understanding of what they do well, and when putting a portion of your funds in an annuity may make sense.
Note - we don’t sell annuities or receive commissions from the sale of any products, so this is an unbiased view of the tool we call an annuity from a financial planning perspective.
We’ll be covering:
- Four main types of annuities
- When annuities make sense
- How to measure the effectiveness of an annuity
- Taxation of annuities
- What to watch out for in annuity presentations
