Let's talk

What is an annuity, and how does it work in a retirement plan?

An annuity is a financial product designed to provide a series of payments over time, often used to generate income during retirement.

This can help create a structured income stream to support long-term financial needs.

Fixed annuities offer consistent payments, variable annuities allow payments that vary based on investment performance, and indexed annuities provide returns linked to a market index. The choice depends on your goals, risk tolerance, and income needs, and Milford Financial advisors can guide you in evaluating each option.
