Testimonial Image
We had heard about annuities and were investigating them for our IRAs. We also heard bad things about pushy brokers over the years. So when we went to the ImmediateAnnuities.com site we were skeptical about calling them. But whenever we called their staff was really friendly. They answered all our questions and one of their reps even told us that at our ages there was no advantage to buying the annuity with our IRAs. These guys are really honest!

Income phase: death benefit, if any, is determined by the payment option elected.

Cost-of-living adjustment

An optional annual compounded increase of 1%, 2% or 3% can be elected at issue.

1. Increase applies after the first anniversary of the payment start date. 2. This option decreases the initial scheduled payment.
