Hi there. Stan The Annuity Man. Today, we're talking about inflation-adjusted annuities, how they work, if they're too good to be true, if they're better than sliced bread, and more.

Today, we will answer the burning question: how long will a million dollars last for retirement? There's no good answer, but I will go into the details. And if you have a million dollars, what does that mean? It might be enough, depending on your lifestyle, but let's dive into it.

"What is Annuitization?" What the heck is that? It's hard to spell and pronounce, but annuitization is a way of getting income from an annuity, whether for lifetime income or a specific period of time. We're going to go through all of that now.

Hi there. Stan The Annuity Man, America's annuity agent, licensed in all 50 states. We're talking about retirement calculators how much a 60-year-old has in their 401k. I get that question a lot, how much does a 60-year-old have or how much money does a 70-year-old have in retirement, et cetera

So, how much should you spend on your annuity using an annuity calculator? How does that all work? Of course, I'm going to tell you, I'm Stan The Annuity Man, America's annuity agent, top agent in this beloved United States of America.

Hi there. Stan The Annuity Man, America's annuity agent. I'm passionate about annuities, but I'm also passionate about why you should own an annuity. One thing I'm even more passionate about is the age at which you need to purchase an annuity.

What we're talking about today is rolling your 401k into an annuity. Should you do that? Could you do that? Why should you do that? Somebody's trying to make you do that. What's the answer Stan The Annuity Man? Let's get into it.

Today's topic is: There’s No ROI Until You Die With Lifetime Income Annuities. It's a great little quippy rhyme: there's no ROI until you die. ROI is the return on investment.

Today's topic is a great one: How the Annuity Sausage Is Made. Now, I'm not going to go into the depths of the actuaries sitting in their closets, running the numbers, etc., but I'm going to give you the 30,000-foot view of how this all works, and it'll make sense to you once I get done.

Today's topic is always reverse engineer annuity income quotes. "What do you mean by reverse engineer, Stan? You do not look like an engineering student or someone who could major in engineering."

Today's topic is a good one and important because people make mistakes when they purchase annuities. They believe something that's true, that's being told to them, that's really not. Annuity agents or advisors are either not detailed enough, don't really know, or play semantics, word games, when they talk about Income Riders.

Today's topic is a good one. What is the purpose of reverse engineering annuity quotes? He's saying, "Reverse engineers. Stan, you don't look like an engineer. You don't act like one." I'm not an engineer. My wife said the other day at the Hoover Dam, "One of the worst jobs ever for you would be an engineer."

Today's topic is how much do you need to retire? In this case, we're talking about money, but I will cover other things because that's what I do. I can free form this, but how much money do you need to retire? I'm going to tell you how to do that. It's very simple.
