Not all high interest rates are created equal—and chasing the top MYGA rate can lead you straight into trouble.

In this episode, Bryan Anderson explains why he prioritizes financial strength, policy flexibility, and long-term safety over chasing the highest yields in multi-year guaranteed annuities. He shares a real-life story of a client walking away from a well-rounded product in favor of a higher rate, and breaks down the hidden risks behind some of the top-paying MYGAs on the market today—many of which are backed by private equity and have questionable long-term strategies.

Why the “highest rate” isn’t always the best deal

The hidden dangers of new and obscure annuity issuers

How private equity is changing the insurance landscape

What to look for in a truly safe annuity

Why Bryan sticks to long-term fundamentals, even if it means losing a sale
