Annuities

A Guaranteed Paycheck
You Literally Cannot Outlive

The biggest fear in retirement is not dying. It is outliving your money. An annuity solves that problem the way nothing else can: it converts part of your savings into dependable monthly income that arrives for as long as you live, guaranteed by the issuing insurance company.

Why Annuities

Four Things an Annuity Does
That Your 401(k) Cannot

∞

Income for Life

Monthly payments that continue as long as you do, whether that is 20 years or 40. Longevity stops being a risk and becomes the reward it should be.

⏳

Tax-Deferred Growth

Your money grows without an annual tax bill. You pay taxes only when you take income, often in retirement when your rate may be lower.

🛡

Market Protection

In fixed and fixed-indexed annuities, your principal is shielded from market losses. A crash on Wall Street does not touch your retirement paycheck.

👪

Beneficiary Options

Spousal continuation and heir protections mean the money you worked for stays in your family, on your terms.

Social Security was never designed to be your whole retirement. An annuity builds the second paycheck that makes the difference.

Know Your Options

The Main Types of Annuities,
In Plain English

Fixed Annuity

A guaranteed interest rate for a set period. You know exactly what your money earns, every year, no surprises. Predictability and safety come first.

Fixed-Indexed Annuity

Growth linked to a market index with a floor that protects you from losses. You share in good years and sit out the bad ones, with a 0% minimum.

Deferred vs. Immediate

Deferred annuities grow your money now for income later. Immediate annuities start paying you within about a year. The right choice depends on your timeline, and that is what the free review sorts out.

FAQ

Annuity Questions

Are annuities safe?

Fixed and fixed-indexed annuities protect your principal from market losses, and guarantees are backed by the claims-paying ability of the issuing insurance company. Carrier strength matters, which is why Patrick works only with highly rated companies.

Do I lose access to my money?

Most annuities allow penalty-free withdrawals up to a set percentage each year, and many include provisions for emergencies like nursing home care. The review will match liquidity features to how much access you actually need.

How much do I need to start?

Options exist across a wide range of savings levels. Whether you have $50,000 set aside or well over $500,000, the free review shows real projections based on your actual numbers, not hypotheticals.

When is the right time to buy an annuity?

Most people start looking seriously between ages 50 and 70, often as they shift from growing money to protecting it. The right time for you depends on your income plan, and that is a conversation, not a sales pitch.
