I’m not looking for quotes at this time (I’m 56), however I would have loved to have seen an example of an annuity going across these 5 example types. For example, how much money needs to be invested in these annuities – $50K, $100K, $150K, etc. and what type of payment would they generate using a random rate just for example purposes. For me, this is always the missing piece of fully understanding annuities. Thanks again for the article!

Plus your expense ratios were higher than necessary, as compared to index funds held with the robo-advisors Jeff mentioned. And for Trump and your cash holdings, whatever excuse you have for holding money is cash doesn’t help you fight inflation.

Hi Mary – After two hits, I can see why you’re concerned. Maybe try working with a robo-advisor that will set up your investments to match your risk tolerance, goals and time horizon. Betterment and Wealthfront are two of the best.

I am currently with Raymond Jamesbut recently moved all my money to cash when Trump became irrational two months ago. I am not really sure what to do.
