Income You Can't Outlive

A Fixed Indexed Annuity can provide dependable income in retirement. By adding an optional income rider, you can convert your contract value into a guaranteed paycheck that continues for the rest of your life.

Your payout is predictable, so you can budget with confidence year after year. You decide when to turn income on, and the carrier guarantees the payments for as long as you live — with joint options available so a spouse can keep receiving income too.

It's an especially popular choice for federal employees and retirees rolling over a TSP, IRA, or 401(k) into protected, income-producing savings.

Guaranteed Lifetime Income FAQs

What is an income rider and how does it work?

An income rider is an optional feature you add to a Fixed Indexed Annuity that guarantees a stream of income for life once you choose to turn it on. It's how your savings become a dependable paycheck you cannot outlive. Riders can be fee based or non fee based, and we'll explain the cost in plain English before you decide.

How much does an income rider cost?

It varies by carrier and contract. Some riders carry an annual fee — often a fraction of a percent of your benefit base — while others are non fee based. Any fee is spelled out in the contract. We compare options across top-rated carriers and explain exactly what you'd pay and what you'd receive before you decide anything.

Can I roll over my TSP, IRA, or 401(k)?

Yes. Many of our clients — especially federal employees — roll over a TSP, IRA, or 401(k) into a Fixed Indexed Annuity for protected, tax-deferred growth and guaranteed lifetime income. We help coordinate the rollover so it's done correctly.

Will my payments continue even if I live a very long time?

Yes — that's the whole purpose of a guaranteed lifetime income rider. Once you turn the income on, the payments are contractually guaranteed to continue for as long as you live, backed by the financial strength and claims-paying ability of the issuing insurance carrier.
