  • Annuities

    An annuity is a form of investment that pays out a stream of payments to an individual upon maturity. Annuities can serve as a steady cash flow for individuals during their retirement years.

    Annuities can provide payments as a lump sum or periodic payments at specific intervals. The two different annuity options are Fixed Annuities and Indexed Annuities.

  • IRAs

    An IRA is a form of investment where investors can set aside money for retirement on a tax-deferred basis.

    IRA types include a Roth IRA, a Traditional IRA, SEP, and Simple IRAs, each with different benefits. There are limits the government sets for how much an individual can annually contribute.

  • 403(b) Plan

    A 403(b) investment plan is a retirement plan for public school employees and tax-exempt organizations. Options include: An annuity contract provided by an insurance company; a custodial account with limited investments; and a retirement account income with investment options that are annuities or mutual funds.

    Advantages include reduced taxable income and tax-deferred earnings on plan contributions.

  • 457(b)

    A 457(b) investment plan is a tax-exempt saving benefit plan for employees of a city, township, water district, park board, or similar entity.

    With a 457(b) retirement plan participants contribute to their investment plan with the help of regular payroll deductions. The participant decides where to invest their money based on the options selected by the employer, who is the plan sponsor.
