An annuity is a financial product that provides a stream of guaranteed income payments, typically used for retirement planning. When you purchase an annuity, you invest a lump sum or series of payments, and in return, the insurance company promises to pay you a regular income — either immediately or at a future date.
You decide how your savings work for you, not the other way around. Annuities can provide peace of mind by ensuring you won't outlive your savings. They offer tax-deferred growth, meaning your money compounds without being taxed until you begin receiving payments.
There are several types of annuities — fixed, variable, and indexed — each with different risk profiles and income potential. A licensed financial advisor can help you determine which type best fits your retirement goals, timeline, and risk tolerance.
