Different insurance companies use different formulas to manage their portfolios and structure reserves. *Up to specified cap, if any. ** Lost Money is defined as any loss from a fixed annuity of Principal or Guaranteed Interest. Principal is the amount initially invested in the annuity; Guaranteed Interest is interest rate guaranteed specified in the annuity contract as guaranteed to be paid either throughout the term of the contract, or for a specific elected year – whichever applies. Proof of loss required including: Specific Annuity Contract for the Annuity in question and support documentation demonstrating that loss was the result of non-payment by the underwriting insurance company.

True •Annuities are appropriate for all seniors. False •FIA in general have become more consumer friendly. True •There are good and bad types of annuities. True •Work with someone you trust and top rated companies. True •FIAs should be part of a long-term retirement strategy. Maybe Fixed Indexed Annuities Are Not For Everyone! “I have to admit I like the concept for the right investor. In fact, for those who do not want to take any downside risk, the index annuity can be a good option … If you are willing to give up some upside potential, an index annuity can help you protect yourself against downside risk, both in the short term and the long term … If you do not want to take any risks but still want to play the stock market, a good index annuity may be right for you.” -- Excerpted from The Road to Wealth, Pages 506-507. Fixed Index Annuities are long term, safe money financial products that are not suitable for everyone. Read all product disclosures, consult your advisors and the NAIC “Buyer’s Guide to Fixed Annuities with Appendix for Equity Index Annuities”. Guarantees are contingent upon you abiding by the terms of the annuity contract.
