Annuities: The only savings tool that provides guaranteed income for life.

What is it?

• A contract between you and an insurance company that ensures you won’t outlive your savings. 

What does the contract do? 

• The company agrees to make a series of income payments to you in exchange for a premium (or premiums) that you pay. 

What does this mean for you? 

• It allows you to accumulate funds on a tax-deferred basis for later payout in the form of a guaranteed income that you cannot outlive.

Why are annuities important? 

• Because annuities are the only product in the private marketplace that can provide payments guaranteed for the rest of the consumer’s life.
