I would never buy an annuity. There is an old saying, annuities are sold and never purchased.

That qoute comes from AUM advisors who collect 1% of your assets every year and is NOT true. I have never been to a presentation and have bought 2 annuities with income riders as part of my retirement income planning. Last year they were by far the best performing asset I had. Of
Course if you have an advisor and he collects $10,000 out of your account that is SUCH a reasonable commission. You should research and know what you are talking about
Before giving advice
On the internet, but most
People don’t.
