How to Achieve A
Fixed Indexed Annuities For Retirement
Certain annuity products, such as fixed indexed annuities (FIAs), might be a good option for some retirees looking for safe retirement options. An annuity is a contract with an insurance company: As part of the agreement, the company sets your principal aside in a reserve. However, you do earn a reasonable rate of return** on the money based on the performance of a market index. Traditional savings accounts, such as CDs, may also offer a secure place to keep your money. However, these accounts have a contribution limit. An FIA does not. Furthermore, accounts like CDs historically don’t provide very much in terms of interest rate, in contrast to an FIA.
