Living Insurance Solutions: Your Guide to Life Insurance FAQs

Annuities are backed by highly regulated insurance companies, not the stock market. Fixed and fixed indexed annuities, in particular, are designed to protect your principal from market losses. While no financial product is completely risk-free, annuities are considered one of the more stable and conservative options for long-term retirement planning.

Annuities provide something most retirement accounts can’t guarantee: lifetime income you can’t outlive. While 401(k)s and IRAs rise and fall with the market, many annuities offer predictable, contractually guaranteed payments. This makes them especially valuable for people who want stability, protection from market volatility, or a “retirement paycheck” they can count on.

• If you want guaranteed income later, buying earlier can lock in stronger benefits.
• If you want income to start soon, you may choose an immediate annuity closer to retirement.

Buying a term life or a combination of term and permanent insurance may help you pay a lower premium. Buying a policy early in life is also a good way to ensure a lower premium.
