While we're off for spring break, we're revisiting this episode that considers whether and when retirees should buy annuities to insure a steady stream of income, based on David Blanchett's research at the time of original airing. Few products are as polarizing among financial advisors than annuities, but certainly they have a place in the retirement picture for some individuals. In this episode, we look at Blanchett's research, which may help advisors decide when a client should annuitize or not, as well as a way savers can self-annuitize.
