Listen Later

In this episode, The Annuity Man discusses:

  • What is a FIA and how it works
  • The history of FIAs
  • The benefits and limitations of a FIA
  • Where FIAs can fit in your portfolio

Key Takeaways:

  • FIAs were introduced in 1995 to compete with CD (not market) returns
  • Income Rider guarantees can be attached to most FIA policies
  • FIAs are life insurance products, not securities
  • Don't base your buying decision on back-tested proposal returns

"Don't buy the annuity dream, own the contractual reality." — The Annuity Man
