THINK Retirement NOW. ™

For worry free income, preservation and indexed growth in retirement with no market losses and no management fees, today’s NEXT GENERATION uncapped retirement index annuities with income riders are becoming the asset of choice for 401k and IRA rollovers.   Once upon a time, government bonds could provide the security and financial peace of mind required in retirement. In fact, "living off your savings" was the time-honored approach to retirement.  But when bank CDs and bonds are paying zero or near zero, and that’s your only plan, you are no longer LIVING off savings....You’re just spending down your principal haphazardly!  You are just paying your principal back to yourself, with little or no interest, and no guarantee of what happens when you run out. Can anyone seriously consider retiring on a bond or bank account  paying less than one or two percent, with inflation headed to three or four percent annually one day? Today, we'll show you how to avoid poor retirement income planning and then travel agent extraordinaire RUBY KELLY joins us for the Q & A.  A power-packed show you don't want to miss!   MASTERING MONEY is on the air!!!

Because fewer people are retiring with pensions, the demand for annuities continues to grow, and is likely to keep growing. Ten thousand Baby Boomers a day turn age 60--and every age up to age 75. They need income to retire on, but bonds pay too little. Baby Boomers have embraced the common sense and logic that annuities provide—especially the NEXT GENERATION of retirement annuities which let YOU, the owner,  share in market index increases without losses, while growing a permanent secure income like a pension at four or five times the income rate of a quality bond.   Smart people are protecting themselves NOW against the next crash and getting in at just the right time. Today, we'll review just how Index Annuities work and how income riders work. Then Medicare Specialist Shelley Grandidge joins us.

Strenuous, stressful work can wear people down and damage their health. In that case, RETIRING can relax and reinvigorate their lives. They finally have time to follow their passions and pursue activities that enrich their lives. But for others, the risks of retirement can involve bad health and even early death, says the Wall Street Journal. Although you might think that retiring would give a person more time to go to the gym, watch their diets, take longer walks, and work on their physical fitness, the opposite often occurs. Many retirees become sedentary and watch too much TV. They eat too much. They drink too much. They smoke too much. And, sometimes, they die too soon. Researchers find that without the purpose of fulfilling work, many retirees can feel adrift and become depressed. We'll review the Journal's statistics on retirement that may SHOCK you! Then health insurance expert Shelley Grandidge joins us for the Q & A. Don't miss it...MASTERING MONEY is on the air!!
