ÃÛѨÊÓƵ

When approaching retirement, there are many big questions you must answer. One of the most important is how do you create reliable income from your savings and investments without running out of money? For an increasing number of people, this means including annuities as part of a retirement income plan. In this episode of ÃÛѨÊÓƵ’ Everyday Wealthâ„¢, Jean and wealth planner Isabel Barrow define what annuities are and if they’re right for everyone. Then, Kelly O’Donnell, executive vice president, and co-chief client officer at ÃÛѨÊÓƵ, joins the conversation to provide insight on annuities in the workplace and the SECURE 2.0 Act. Later, Jean talks with Robert Bain, who leads the insurance team at ÃÛѨÊÓƵ, about the pros and cons of equity-indexed annuities and the complex details that surround them.
