FAQs
Everything You Need to Know About Your Insurance Options
What is an annuity?
An annuity is a financial product offered by insurance companies that provides a stream of payments, typically for retirement. You make a lump sum or series of payments (premiums) to the insurer, and in return, they guarantee income for a set period or your lifetime. Annuities help turn your savings into predictable cash flow, protecting against outliving your money. At Zimco Financial Group, LLC, we help you select annuities that fit your retirement goals without unnecessary risks.
How do annuities work?
Annuities have three main phases: accumulation (where you build value through contributions and potential growth), annuitization (converting that value into payments), and payout (receiving regular income). For example, in a fixed annuity, your money grows at a guaranteed rate; in variable ones, it ties to investment performance. Withdrawals or payments can start immediately or be deferred. Our team at Zimco Financial Group, LLC, explains the mechanics in plain language and models scenarios to show how an annuity could work for your portfolio.
What are the different types of annuities?
There are several types to suit various needs:
- Fixed Annuities: Offer guaranteed interest rates and principal protection—ideal for conservative investors seeking stability.
- Variable Annuities: Linked to market investments, allowing growth potential but with more risk.
- Indexed Annuities: Tied to a market index (like the S&P 500) for upside potential with downside protection.
- Immediate vs. Deferred: Immediate starts payments right away; deferred grows tax-deferred until later.
Zimco Financial Group, LLC, reviews your risk tolerance and timeline to recommend the best type, ensuring it aligns with your overall financial plan.
What are the benefits of investing in an annuity?
Annuities provide tax-deferred growth, lifetime income options to combat longevity risk, and protection from market downturns (especially fixed or indexed types). They can also include features like death benefits for heirs or riders for long-term care. Unlike other investments, annuities offer contractual guarantees from the insurer. Clients working with Zimco Financial Group, LLC, often highlight how annuities bring peace of mind, helping them retire confidently without worrying about stock market volatility.
Are annuities right for me, and how do I get started?
Annuities are great if you're seeking guaranteed income, tax advantages, or a hedge against inflation in retirement—but they're not for everyone, especially if you need liquidity soon. Factors like your age, savings, and goals matter. To find out if one fits, start with a no-obligation chat. At Zimco Financial Group, LLC, we offer a free initial assessment: just contact us or call today. We'll review your situation and outline customized options, with no pressure to buy.
