Episode Synopsis

In this episode, The Annuity Man discussed:  Why are Indexed Annuities sold in a misleading way?  Indexed Annuities are not growth products  What annuities are for    Key Takeaways:  Because Indexed Annuities are a high-commission product for agents, they are often promoted in a misleading manner, obscuring their true nature and limitations. Indexed Annuities are not growth products, they are designed for principal protection, CD-type returns, and Income Riders. Indexed Annuities lack dividends, limiting their potential for growth. When it comes to annuities, remember that you should only base your buying decision on contractual guarantees. Annuities solve for these specific goals: Principal protection, Income for life, Legacy, and Long-term care.    "The upfront bonus is candy for the stupid. Buying an Index Annuity for that upfront bonus is like buying a brand-new car for the stereo system. That should be irrelevant to your decision." —  Stan The Annuity Man.    Connect with The Annuity Man:  Website: http://theannuityman.com/  Email: [email protected]  Book: Owner's Manuals: https://www.stantheannuityman.com/how-do-annuities-work YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCCXKKxvVslbeGAlEc5sra2g  Get a Quote Today: https://www.stantheannuityman.com/annuity-calculator!
