It might come as a shock, but you can get the most out of your money if you wait until you’re at least 75 years old to get an annuity.

These are some of the Tips and Tricks we share about Immediate Annuities at AnnuityStraightTalk.com

This kind of product is called an ‘immediate fixed annuity’. What happens is that your insurance company would receive a premium from you, and you get paid a set amount each month until you die. Annuities have declined in popularity recently, as interest rates have also declined. They will still provide you with a consistent and safe income.

How good are these insurance and annuity leads?

Internet robots crawl web sites hunting for e-mail addresses associated with insurance and annuity content. Somebody might be inquiring about annuities on a newsgroup or forum, next thing they know they’re getting offers from annuity companies. The Annuity Lead companies don’t let you in on how they’ve harvested the leads. It’s called spam and you could get in serious trouble for contacting these people unsolicited.

There are two parts to a fixed deferred guaranteed income annuity

ainmohd — Fri, 01 Aug 2008 09:46:17 +0000

There are two parts to a fixed deferred guaranteed income annuity, a current interest rate and a minimum guaranteed interest rate. The minimum guaranteed interest rate is the lowest rate that your annuity will earn. This rate is stated in the contract. The current rate is linked to the reserves and interest the company earns on their portfolio, or for an external reference or index. You can buy a fixed deferred annuity and start your interest income thirty days later. However, it is better to wait twelve months, and then take the previous years earned interest through the second year.

How Index-Linked Annuity Interest Crediting Works

ainmohd — Thu, 31 Jul 2008 09:41:56 +0000

The monthly point-to-point index change is determined by subtracting the prior month’s index value from current month’s index value and dividing it by the prior month’s index value. If this results in a positive monthly point-to-point index change and is not more than the declared cap, then it is used as the capped index change for that month. If it is more than the declared cap, then we use the declared cap as the capped index change for that month.
