Author Description

There are a lot of misconceptions around annuities. Most of them revolve around the sale of variable annuities from brokers where there is a lot of overpromising done, in my Humble opinion. For example, a variable annuity is a security and therefore is an investment that inherently carries risk and comes with high fees. For variable annuities, 3-6 percent in fees could come out of the overall account value annually versus just a 0-1 percent annual fee with a Fixed Indexed Annuity. My number one goal in writing this book is to educate American pre-retirees and retirees on the extreme value of investing in an accumulation-based annuity. In this book, you will learn how you can eliminate the advisory fees that you pay on bonds that you may currently hold within your portfolio if you have a financial advisor. We will also discuss the metric power of a strategic bond replacement, the power of zero, and the current price to earnings ratio of bonds.
