Retirement planning in the current economic climate is more challenging than ever. With the baby boomer generation retiring and fewer people contributing to Social Security, it's important to have a solid retirement plan in place. Annuities can be a valuable tool for generating guaranteed income in retirement, especially for those who don't have a pension plan.
