It’s a good question, Harris. Asking is probably one of the best things to do, especially on important matters like finances or investments. With regards to this, I can safely tell you that it is non-curiosity that kills the cat. If you haven’t asked, you would have probably missed out on the most practical; if not the best investment option there is available today.

So what is it, and why should you get one?

Try answering this question first. When you retire, where would you get your source of income? Would it be guaranteed? Of course we all want a sure source of income once we decide to stop breaking our backs. This is where annuity comes in.

It’s a very flexible retirement vehicle that has a lot of options and contract types that can help you foresee and get the type and amount of income you would want to have after retirement. It works by you making periodic amortizations or contributing to your annuity in lump sums. This amount of money earns over time, provided that you aren’t tempted to use it before it matures – you can do that, but it would still be subjected to tax. By the time you’re 59 ½ years old, or after retirement, you can withdraw money without being taxed.

You can choose to get fixed, variable, immediate or deferred annuity. In order to know more about these, you should speak to your local insurer in Fort Wayne Indiana IN who can provide you full details and annuity options for you to choose from.
