Supplementing
Your Retirement Income With Genworth Annuities
I am
at the age now where I need to think about my financial future.
Annuities are an option that can help me to grow and supplement my
retirement income every year. With the volatile stock-market, concerns
over company pensions and social security, I need an investment option
that I can depend upon.
Annuities may be purchased either with one lump sum or a series of
payments. The premiums are paid back to me plus any earnings that may
have incurred over a series of time. Many annuities have a lifetime
payout schedule. After having done some research on Genworth annuities,
I found that there are different types of annuities that I can choose
from.
For a low risk option, many older people choose the fixed annuity. The
fixed annuitiy can guarantee retirement income that you can't outlive.
A fixed annuity offers a guaranteed income payment for a specific
period of time and offers a guaranteed minimum interest rate.
Genworth
annuities, like the variable annuities types, are a better
option for me, as I am a bit younger. I have chosen the variable
annuity, because it allows me to invest my purchase payment into a
separate account, which in turn invests in underlying portfolios with
varying potential for return. If I make some wise investment choices, I
will see a much larger principal than originally invested.
