A practical starting point

Put a few planning pieces on the table.

These inputs organize the first conversation. The range below is a hypothetical planning view—not a quote, recommendation, or projection of any insurance contract.

Why this mattersCarrier benefits, charges, crediting methods, and income options differ by product and state. A licensed agent should review your complete picture before any decision.

What is your starting picture?

What matters most?

Illustrative monthly planning range

$911 – $1,188/mo

Based on a $250,000 starting amount and a simple 4.4%–5.7% illustrative annual income range at age 65.

Illustrative only. Actual contract income depends on age, state, carrier, premium, rider selection, annuitization, product terms, and other factors. Guarantees, when issued, are backed solely by the claims-paying ability of the issuing insurer.

Turn this into a real plan

Explore before you decide

Three routes. Different jobs.

Annuities are not one product. The right conversation starts with the job you need the money to do, not a generic promise or an online “best rate.”

01

Income-focused annuity

For people who want to explore predictable income features and a long-term retirement paycheck.

02

MYGA

A fixed annuity with a stated interest-crediting period. Best evaluated alongside liquidity needs and surrender terms.

Compare MYGA questions
03

Fixed indexed annuity

For those evaluating interest potential linked to an index, with contract limits and a floor—not direct market ownership.

Learn about FIA options

Fixed, MYGA, and fixed indexed annuities are insurance products—not bank deposits. They are not FDIC insured, not bank guaranteed, and may involve surrender charges or market-value adjustments where applicable.

Straight answers, first

Questions that deserve a clear answer.

Can I buy an annuity entirely online?

You can begin research and request a plan online. Completing an annuity purchase normally involves a licensed agent, carrier application, state-specific documents, and—in many cases—suitability review. That is a protection, not a hurdle.

Are annuities FDIC insured?

No. Annuities are insurance contracts, not FDIC-insured bank deposits. Contract guarantees are backed by the financial strength and claims-paying ability of the issuing insurance company.

Can I move a 401(k) or IRA into an annuity?

Possibly. A direct rollover or trustee-to-trustee transfer may be available depending on the account and product. Taxes, timing, employer-plan rules, and surrender schedules must be evaluated before a move.

What is the catch with a “guaranteed” income benefit?

Guarantees have product terms. Income riders can carry charges; withdrawals may be limited; surrender charges can apply; and payment options vary. A licensed agent should walk you through the actual contract—not just a headline.
