Fixed Annuities - Planning Ahead
While some individuals are able to take advantage of employer-offered retirement plans such as the 401(k) and others may invest in individual retirement accounts (IRAs), there are limits to the amount of money that can be contributed to those investment. As one of the biggest retirement risks is outliving your savings, fixed income annuities may help to avoid that pitfall, allowing you to plan for a lifestyle you’ve worked hard to achieve.
Advantages to fixed income annuities include:
- No contribution limits
- Steady income now or in the future
- Tax-deferred earnings for retirement
Fixed annuities provide several payout options – payments for a specified period, payments for life, post retirement payments. Provided you’ve been able to consistently contribute to your fixed annuity, it’s a great way to provide regular income during your retirement years.
This is where professional expertise can be incredibly valuable. A good financial advisor understands each individual’s unique situation and will really listen and help guide you through investing in fixed annuities and provide sound advice based upon your concerns.
