Annuities
A comfortable, secure retirement doesn't
happen all by itself. It takes dedication and careful planning. Whatever goals and dreams
you may have, think carefully about how you plan to meet them. Your retirement nest egg is
probably the largest sum of money you will ever need to accumulate in your lifetime. Those
who make saving toward retirement a top priority will be in the best position to turn
their dreams into reality.
One of the best ways to
secure your future is to set aside a portion of your current income today, and give it
time to grow on a tax-deferred basis. Among the ways you can do this are by:
- Making annual contributions to an Individual
Retirement Account (IRA)
- Participating fully in your
employer-sponsored 401(k) or 403 (b) plan, or SEP-IRA or Keogh if you are self-employed
- Making contributions to an annuity
Annuities from Guidant Life Insurance
Company can help in any of the above
situations, except 401(k). Deferred annuities offer some unique advantages over other
types of retirement savings plans, and are intended to serve as a complement to these
plans. Annuities can be a valuable way to set aside additional money on a
tax-deferred basis over the long term to help achieve the retirement of your dreams. |
