stan, is there a contractual guarantee against the company going out of business, thereby killing the annuity?

[@StanTheAnnuityMan]

Great question! Annuities are backed by the financial strength and claims-paying ability of the issuing insurance company. State guaranty funds also provide a safety net up to certain limits if an insurer becomes insolvent. If you have any questions, or would like to dive into this further, please feel free to reach out: www.stantheannuityman.com/book-a-call

MERRY CHRISTMAS STAN, ALWAYS SHOOTIN IT STRAIGHT. SO FIXED INDEXED ANNUITYS IS A NO FEE PRODUCT, UNTIL YOU ADD THE INCOME RIDER?

[@g.ajemian4968]

Yes

[@StanTheAnnuityMan]

MERRY CHRISTMAS! Thanks for the great question! You're right that Fixed Index Annuities typically don’t have upfront fees or annual charges, but when you add an Income Rider, there can be a cost associated with it. The Income Rider is an optional feature that guarantees income for life, and the cost will vary depending on the rider. It's important to understand the benefits and the costs before making a decision. Always here to shoot it straight for you-let me know if you need more details!

While I understand why people compare annuities and Social Security, as best I know there are no annuities that print their own money and own aircraft carriers
