Retirement Income Strategies

One of the biggest challenges in retirement is replacing the paycheck that you used to rely on from your job. Social Security and defined benefit pensions help replace a portion of your pre-retirement income, however they will not keep up with the cost of living. To maintain your standard of living, you'll need to have a stream of consistent and reliable income that could help keep up with inflation so you are able to continue your lifestyle.


In addition to Social Security and defined benefit pensions you may have other sources income including Required Minimum Distributions (RMD’s) from retirement accounts, stocks, bonds, dividends, life insurance and annuities. It is important to understand how to maximize your assets while minimizing your taxes.

Annuities

Annuities are a popular product for retirees that provide a number of benefits ranging from downside protection, death benefits and guaranteed income. There are many types of annuities Variable, Fixed Indexed, Fixed, Immediate to name a few and they all have different benefits. If an annuity fits into your plan we will help you understand the benefits of each type to find the one that will best meet your needs.  If you currently own any annuities we will help you understand how it may or may not fit into your retirement plan. Our goal is to make your retirement the one you have dreamed of and your investments should help not hurt you on this journey.

What Are Some of the Benefits of a Fixed-Indexed Annuity?*

  • Tax-deferred growth. Interest in a fixed indexed annuity is tax deferred. This means you don’t pay taxes on any interest as long as the money stays inside the annuity. You do pay taxes when you take the interest out of the annuity. Tax-deferred growth could help you accumulate assets at a faster rate than you would in a taxable vehicle.

  • Downside protection. Most fixed indexed annuities offer principal protection, which means you can’t lose principal due to market losses. Even if your index has a down year, your annuity balance won’t go down. You may not earn interest that year, but you won’t lose money due to the decrease in the index value.

  • Upside potential. Fixed indexed annuities are linked to an external market index, like the S&P 500. You have the opportunity to earn interest in a specified time period based on how the index performs. If the index performs poorly, you may earn less or no interest, but you won’t lose money. If the index performs well, you may earn more interest.

*Guarantees, including optional benefits, are backed by the claims-paying ability of the issuer, and may contain limitations, including surrender charges, which may affect policy values.
