What is an Annuity and why are they an important retirement Planning Vehicle?
Annuities are financial instruments that serve as a means of accumulating wealth for the future, ensuring a stable income stream during retirement, and offering protection against life's uncertainties. In simple terms, when you invest in an annuity, you're essentially making a contract with an insurance company. You invest a lump sum or a series of payments, and in return, the insurance company provides you with periodic payments or a lump sum payout, depending on the terms of your annuity. Nicole Gumm Groseclose Insurance Solutions offers expert advice, personalized solutions and a commitment to your long-term financial well-being.
Why Consider an Annuity?
When considering an annuity, there are some key benefits that can truly enhance your sense of security and well-being as you approach retirement. An annuity can provide a valuable opportunity to save additional money specifically earmarked for retirement, especially after you have maxed out contributions to other tax-favored investment options such as IRAs or 401(k)s. Furthermore, annuities can be particularly advantageous for those who find themselves needing to catch up on retirement savings, especially in situations where time is of the essence and you have fewer years remaining to accumulate the necessary funds for a comfortable retirement. These features make annuities a compelling choice for individuals looking to bolster their financial future.
Indexed Annuity
If you are in your money accumulation phase of life, we suggest an index annuity. This type of annuity pays you more based on the stock markets. It gives you the chance to accumulate more money while the markets are doing well.
Fixed Annuity
Unlike an index annuity, which pays based on the market, a fixed annuity is based on a set rate. The guaranteed interest rates are great for people who have retired or are about to retire. A fixed annuity is a safe option when you don’t want to risk investing in the stock market.
