Traditionally, retirees have relied on Social Security, defined benefit plans, and individual savings to get them through retirement. However, thanks to retirees living longer and defined benefit plans evolving into defined contribution plans, many are left to find another avenue for income. Thankfully, a lifetime income option exists for retirees through annuities and optional riders.
Annuities are a contract with an insurance company that allows you to receive a set amount of income, typically over the course of your lifetime. We’re here to help find an annuity that works for your needs in retirement.
We have identified and partnered with estate planning attorneys and CPAs. With an estate planning attorney reviewing your documents and a CPA assessing your tax returns from the last three years, we’re able to provide a “team” approach to your financial, tax, and estate planning needs. Because of these relationships, you can benefit from a thorough analysis of your financial and estate planning needs. In addition, we are able to offer a much more cost-effective alternative to having these services performed individually.
