In this episode, The Annuity Man discussed:

• Bonuses are not the true benefits

• Unethical practices that rush an annuity sale

• Focus on what really matters

Key Takeaways:

• Upfront bonuses are merely a part of the contract rather than the true benefits they seem to be. Focus instead on the lifetime income guarantee, on the financial stability and predictability an annuity can offer.

• Agents sometimes tout bonuses rather than clarify the long-term financial implications of the annuity in order to close a deal. It is unethical and in some cases, could even cross the line into being illegal.

• Look past the smoke and mirrors of upfront bonuses and instead, search for the annuity with the highest contractual guarantee. These guarantees are what will determine the annuity's genuine value over the course of your retirement.

"The only number that matters is the lifetime income guarantee that the company is backing up. All of the bonuses are just shiny things - candy for the stupid. Don't be that person. " — Stan The Annuity Man.
