Annuities for Individuals

What are Annuities for Individuals?  An annuity is a type of investment account typically used for retirement savings.  As well, it can be used to generate lifetime income payments in retirement.  By definition, an annuity is a contract between you and a third party. Usually, that third party is an insurance company. The contract is written in exchange for making a lump sum payment. Also, it can be written by paying a monthly premium. Generally, the issuing insurance company provides some type of guarantee on your investment.

In these policies, the premium paid during years worked provides death benefit protection.  Upon death, the benefit is usually tax free to the beneficiaries. The policy owner may choose to use cash value during the coverage period. In the case of a qualified illness diagnosis, the owners may choose to accelerate the death benefit during working and/or retirement years.
