0:03
fun with annuities with your host me
0:05
stan
0:06
the annuity man america's annuity agent
0:09
can annuities be fun
0:10
can contractual guarantees be fun
0:13
absolutely they can
0:14
find out the brutal facts about
0:16
annuities with no sales pitches or high
0:19
pressure nonsense
0:21
just the brutal and factual annuity
0:23
truth which is all you need to hear
0:26
let's have some fun with annuities and
0:28
let's have that fun start right
0:30
now
0:35
hey this is stan the annuity man and
0:37
welcome to fun
0:38
with annuities today we're going to talk
0:40
about another product type called a
0:42
deferred income annuity
0:44
also called a dia and a lot of people in
0:47
the industry
0:48
or the pundits or the financial
0:50
journalists call it a longevity annuity
0:52
because it solves for your longevity
0:53
it's a lifetime income stream that you
0:54
cannot outlive so deferred
0:57
income annuity and like with all product
0:59
types
1:00
i like to start with the limitations and
1:01
then tell you about the benefits because
1:03
you need to know both right it's not all
1:05
sizzle let's talk about the steak so
1:07
with that being said
1:09
the limitations of a deferred income
1:11
annuity are very similar to
1:13
an immediate annuity if you listen to my
1:14
podcast on single premium immediate
1:17
annuities speas spias
1:19
the dia deferred income annuity is the
1:21
is the cousin
1:23
of an immediate annuity because it's the
1:24
exact same structure
1:26
the difference is just how long you
1:28
defer the product for income
1:30
meaning when you want the income stream
1:32
to turn on with immediate annuity it's
1:34
between 30 days and 13 months from a
1:36
deferred income annuity
1:39
once you go to 13 months and it can go
1:41
as far out as 45 years
1:43
or more you can defer the income start
1:47
date but
1:47
with that being said the limitations is
1:49
there's there's a very limited liquidity
1:52
once again there's some deals that offer
1:55
that liquidity but when
1:56
companies annuity companies give things
1:58
away they don't do it for free they take
2:01
something away
2:02
so they have the big buildings for a
2:04
reason they have the big logos on the
2:05
plane for a reason
2:07
so typically the majority of the time if
2:10
they have a
2:10
a liquidity offering within the dia
2:13
they're
2:14
probably lowering the payment in most
2:16
cases the other
2:18
limitation for a deferred income annuity
2:20
is there's no accumulation value meaning
2:23
that okay
2:24
stan i want to do a deferred income
2:25
annuity i want to defer for five years
2:27
during that five year time period
2:29
there's no trackable interest rate
2:30
there's no market attachment
2:32
if you have a you get your money back
2:34
structure if you die you know i want a
2:37
lifetime income stream but if i die
2:38
before the income
2:39
stream turns on i want all my money back
2:40
you can structure it like that you're
2:42
going to get your premium back there's
2:43
no
2:44
there's no accrued interest however
2:46
annuity companies do reward you for
2:48
allowing them to hold on to the money
2:50
so the longer you allow them to hold on
2:52
to the money the more they're going to
2:53
enhance the payout
2:54
but for your investors out there that
2:56
can't get out of the investor mindset
2:58
and understand that annuities are
3:00
contracts not investments
3:02
this one might drive you crazy this
3:03
might be a limitation you can't overcome
3:06
because you always want to see growth
3:07
even though you know you haven't seen it
3:09
on a lot of investments
3:11
just the way it is it's the product so
3:13
there's no
3:14
trackable accumulation value there's no
3:16
market growth attachment
3:18
or anything like that if you want that
3:20
then don't buy an annuity of any type if
3:21
you're looking for market type returns
3:23
regardless of what you hear or been
3:25
shown on a hypothetical or theoretical
3:27
or back-tested whatever
3:29
do not buy an annuity annuities or
3:31
contracts they were not set up
3:33
for market growth yes there's arguments
3:35
for you know no load variable annuities
3:37
but
3:37
we'll get to that but in essence i think
3:40
still
3:41
if you want true market growth i think
3:43
you should go outside the annuity
3:44
culture outside the annuity product
3:46
offering the payments
3:47
and this could be a limitation or
3:49
benefit whatever you want the payments
3:50
are primarily based
3:52
on your life expectancy at the time of
3:54
the payment
3:56
and the secondary pricing mechanism are
3:58
interest rates they're not
3:59
primary interest rates are not the
4:01
primary pricing mechanism
4:03
of diverting income annuities or meeting
4:06
annuities
4:07
understand that lean in listen because
4:10
everyone's trying to time interest rates
4:12
with these products it's life expectancy
4:14
that drives the train and then there's
4:17
from a confinement care standpoint of
4:19
those type of little
4:20
whistles and bells these don't have them
4:22
okay so limitations are you know
4:24
limited liquidity no accumulation value
4:27
no market growth the payments are based
4:28
on life expectancy
4:30
common sense things so you know it goes
4:32
back to if it sounds too good to be true
4:34
during the sales pitch it is every
4:35
single time with an annuity that's the
4:37
limitations
4:38
of the deferred income annuity now the
4:39
benefits is there's no annual fees it's
4:41
very simple
4:42
inefficient future income it's a pension
4:45
future pension if you want to call it
4:46
that
4:47
it can be used in an ira a non-ira a
4:49
roth
4:50
anything it can be used in any of those
4:52
accounts obviously those accounts are
4:54
tax structures so depends on what you
4:56
put it in and how the income is going to
4:58
be taxed
4:59
in a non-ira account that the tax
5:02
preferential treatment is that it's a
5:04
return of principal plus interest
5:06
all annuity payments are so you're not
5:08
going to pay taxes on the principal just
5:09
the interest
5:11
in a roth it's it's tax-free obviously
5:13
in an ira it's all taxable could you've
5:14
been deferring
5:16
and we'll talk about iras as well
5:18
there's some limitations on
5:19
you know how far out you can defer these
5:22
things are customizable
5:23
you know you can customize the structure
5:25
lifetime income payout you can do it for
5:27
period certain you could do a
5:28
combination of that
5:30
you can add a spouse you can add a
5:32
family member etc
5:34
you can also add a cost of living
5:35
adjustment writer or a
5:37
cpa iu consumer price index increase to
5:39
the income stream it sounds fantastic
5:41
on surface except the annuity companies
5:43
never give anything away if you do that
5:45
they're gonna lower the payment so if
5:47
you said hey run a quote for me
5:50
with a cola and without a cola without a
5:52
coal is going to be higher
5:54
lifetime income guarantee the one with a
5:56
cola cost of living adjustment increase
5:58
is going to be lower and it's going to
6:00
take some years for it to make up
6:02
for the for the one that is static
6:05
payments going to be the same that
6:06
doesn't mean it's better or worse
6:08
that's just reality you already own the
6:10
best inflation annuity on the planet
6:12
it's called social security
6:14
right annuity companies don't give
6:16
anything away like politicians
6:18
politicians write checks with their
6:19
mouth that their rear ends can't cash
6:21
annuity companies don't do that and with
6:24
all
6:24
annuities the commissions are built into
6:27
the product
6:29
so you're never going to see it i don't
6:31
like that i wish that was
6:33
different but it is what it is they're
6:35
low
6:36
for deferred income annuities as
6:38
compared to
6:39
some of the other complex products out
6:41
there just because it's efficient it's
6:43
easy to understand it's transparent
6:44
no offense to nine-year-olds but you can
6:46
explain it to a nine-year-old
6:48
and always say if you can't explain the
6:50
annuity purchase to a nine-year-old
6:52
then don't buy it i think warren buffett
6:53
would probably nod his head to that one
6:55
right
6:56
so let's talk about and by the way
6:59
i'm going through this outline holding
7:01
the deferred income annuity owner's
7:03
manual
7:04
in my hand you know i've written a
7:06
series of annuity owners manuals on
7:08
every product
7:10
and it's the best outline in the world
7:11
for a podcast because i've already done
7:13
it i've already written it and i would
7:14
encourage you to go to my site
7:16
at the annuityman.com and get your copy
7:19
i'll send it to you for free i won't
7:20
call you i won't bug you i'll have
7:22
associate bug you we won't we won't show
7:24
up at your door
7:25
we'll send it to you leave you alone and
7:26
if you want a quote let us know
7:28
so the annuityman.com go get it i
7:31
encourage you it's 55 pages long you
7:33
have that time to read it
7:35
so you'll hear pages flip probably
7:37
because i'm sitting here kind of
7:38
flipping through making sure i'm
7:39
covering
7:39
points i want to cover but in essence
7:43
deferred income annuities suffer what i
7:44
call income later
7:46
meaning you need income at a later date
7:48
there's two products that do that it's a
7:49
deferred income annuity and
7:51
income writers we'll talk about income
7:53
riders in another podcast and we'll
7:55
certainly dive into
7:57
income later strategies on future
7:58
podcasts as well but those are the two
8:00
types so if you say
8:01
hey stan please quote me i need income
8:03
to start in seven years or ten years
8:05
we're going to show you deferred income
8:06
annuity quotes and we're also going to
8:08
show you
8:09
income writer quotes and then we'll
8:11
explain the benefits and limitations of
8:12
both and you can make a decision what
8:14
what makes
8:15
sense for you in essence a deferred
8:18
income annuity is what i call a
8:19
non-correlated asset has nothing to do
8:22
with the market and it's really a
8:24
transfer of risk pension for the future
8:26
that you can depend on
8:28
and that's what i mean i like that i
8:30
like knowing to the penny
8:31
i'm a planner and a lot of you out there
8:33
are nodding your head yeah i'm a planner
8:34
too
8:35
i want to know to the penny what i'm
8:37
going to be able to get
8:40
period so it's a transfer risk based on
8:42
your life expectancy so
8:44
i don't know the roi i don't know the
8:45
return on investment until you die so
8:47
there's no roi to you die
8:50
you know when you die as i say in
8:51
previous podcast i'll go to your funeral
8:53
i'll sing a very good song
8:55
with no backing i'll just get up there
8:56
and sing it and work in your roi
8:59
in the song but up until then it's a
9:02
transfer of risk
9:03
that either you will not be able to live
9:06
or your spouse
9:07
if you did it joint here's a good part
9:09
about deferring communities i love and
9:10
annuities in general that you can
9:11
structure
9:12
with a spouse is when you when you pass
9:15
away
9:17
the income stream continues
9:19
uninterrupted and unchanged for that
9:20
spouse's life as well and then you can
9:22
also add
9:23
a guarantee that when your spouse dies
9:25
whatever's left in the account does not
9:27
go to the evil annuity company
9:29
it goes to your list of beneficiaries a
9:31
lot of people say well i would never buy
9:32
an annuity stand
9:34
because when i die that company keeps
9:36
the money that's one of about
9:37
30 ways to structure it now that's
9:39
called life only you can structure it
9:40
life only
9:41
and by the way that would be the highest
9:42
payout because you're shouldering some
9:44
of that risk
9:45
but if you say hey i've worked really
9:46
hard for my money i don't want anybody
9:48
to keep up with my family but yet i
9:49
still want a lifetime income stream
9:50
guarantee
9:51
we can do that understand that you know
9:54
they will
9:55
accept that risk pay you for the rest of
9:56
your life regardless of how long you
9:58
live but if you die early
9:59
100 of the money can be structured to go
10:01
back to your beneficiaries
10:03
either in a lump sum or in a in a
10:06
payment form i always tell people
10:08
structures so they're getting a payment
10:09
they're going to show up to your funeral
10:10
in a ferrari anyway
10:11
you just want to make them payments on
10:13
instead of you know using the lump sum
10:15
to buy it
10:15
that's a joke you can laugh now but that
10:18
is true sometimes you want to handcuff
10:19
those beneficiaries i know with my
10:21
daughters
10:22
they're lovely and wonderful and smart
10:24
but they would buy the ferrari so we'll
10:26
have them making payments when my
10:27
learjet
10:28
hits the mountain so in the income later
10:31
scenario you know which is better
10:32
a deferred income annuity or an income
10:34
rider well the first thing remember
10:36
the two questions you always ask so buy
10:38
an annuity what do you want the money to
10:40
contractually do
10:41
not hypothetical theoretical or
10:43
projected or back tested
10:44
what do you want the money to
10:45
contractually do and when you want those
10:47
contractual guarantees to happen
10:48
and start you know it really comes down
10:51
to the highest number so if the income
10:53
rider has the highest guarantee
10:54
on an income later quote then we're
10:57
going to look hard at that right
10:58
if a if a deferred income annuity has it
11:01
then we're gonna
11:02
go through the benefits and limitations
11:03
that we're also gonna go through the tax
11:05
taxation of the income stream depending
11:07
on what account
11:09
type you're using ira traditional ira
11:11
roth ira
11:12
non-ira but you can quote it a couple
11:16
ways you can say hey
11:17
stan i've got x amount of dollars got
11:19
200 000 i want you
11:20
how much money how much income can me
11:23
and my spouse get
11:24
starting in five years or you can say
11:28
in five years i know that we're gonna
11:30
need an extra four thousand dollars a
11:31
month
11:33
so how much money would it take for me
11:35
to
11:36
put in right now to guarantee four
11:38
thousand dollars a month five years from
11:40
now we can do that as a reverse engineer
11:42
quote so
11:43
you know the longer you wait the higher
11:44
the payment because the the older you're
11:46
going to be
11:47
and the longer you're allowing the
11:48
annuity company to keep the money and
11:50
hold on to the money
11:52
so we do it a couple of ways so
11:55
again the quotes are customizable with
11:58
all of this
11:59
and so i like deferred income annuities
12:00
and immediate annuities and those type
12:02
of products because they're very very
12:03
simple they're transparent
12:05
they're easy to understand the number
12:07
you see i mean it's just it's very very
12:10
simple and simple is good in my opinion
12:12
when you're looking at annuities
12:14
understand there's no fees with the
12:15
deferred income annuity commissions are
12:17
built in you never see it and paid to
12:19
the
12:19
to the agent by the carrier but compared
12:22
to
12:23
the complex products out there they're
12:24
they're much much lower
12:26
and understand also you know people say
12:28
well how how do i
12:29
address inflation you know what do i do
12:32
you really there's really not
12:33
any good answers as i say all the time
12:36
there's no good answers to annuities
12:38
in a lot of cases but there really are a
12:40
lot of bad sales pitches out there right
12:42
everyone's going to say oh well well
12:44
my annuity can address inflation crap
12:46
that's a bunch of crap
12:48
yes you can attach a cost of living
12:50
adjustment increase or
12:51
a uh you know a cpiu increase
12:55
but the annuity comes going to lower the
12:56
payment i always tell people there's
12:58
really no perfect
12:59
inflation product out there that
13:02
addresses it because it's a moving
13:03
target
13:04
and annuity companies don't price moving
13:06
targets they price
13:08
life and death and they know when you're
13:09
going to die based on how old you are
13:11
etc
13:12
so the other thing too you got to
13:14
remember this
13:15
is you can also
13:18
ladder these things and a lot of times
13:20
people come to me and say i want to put
13:22
five hundred thousand deferred income
13:24
annuity after we talk a while
13:26
it it might make more sense to do a
13:28
hundred thousand dollars a year
13:30
for five consecutive years and then
13:32
laddering that start date
13:34
because really the best way to attack
13:36
inflation is to have
13:37
income starting in intervals you know
13:40
have it start at age 70 and 72 and then
13:42
75 and 77. so
13:44
we like laddering things when it's
13:46
appropriate sometimes it's appropriate
13:47
to do the lump sum
13:48
sometimes it's appropriate to do the
13:50
latter it all comes down to allocation
13:52
of proportion and there's no
13:54
perfect scenario for people to hey stan
13:57
what's the percentage i need to put in
13:58
annuities
13:59
there's no perfect answer just bad sales
14:00
[ __ ] hey hey stan
14:02
you know is it better to ladder a lump
14:03
sum it depends on the conversation that
14:05
we have
14:06
in your specific situation what you're
14:08
trying to achieve
14:09
understand that a deferred income
14:10
annuity also has a sister product called
14:13
a culac which is a qualified
14:15
longevity annuity contract qlac
14:18
it's a deferred income annuity that can
14:20
only be used
14:22
inside of your ira we'll talk about that
14:25
and delve into it deeply
14:27
in another podcast but i want you know
14:29
that you'll hear deferred income annuity
14:31
dia you'll hear
14:32
qlack out there same product same
14:35
structure
14:35
just different rules on how you use it
14:37
deferred income annuity can be used in a
14:39
roth a non-roth a non-ira
14:41
in a traditional ira up to age 70 and a
14:44
half
14:45
once you pass age 70 half when the
14:47
income stream is going to turn on
14:48
another not buying it
14:50
but when you say i need the income
14:51
stream to turn on
14:53
past 870 and a half then we're going to
14:55
be looking at a q
14:56
lakh and that's just the rules that are
14:58
out there but i didn't want i don't want
14:59
to get
15:00
caught too much in the weeds but a q
15:02
lakh is a deferred income annuity
15:05
period so one of the things that
15:08
drives me a little bit crazy out there
15:10
under my will do not might do mantras
15:12
will do not might do as we'll do is is
15:14
contractual guarantees you buy an
15:15
annuity for the will do the contractual
15:17
guarantees not the might do
15:19
which is the hypothetical and
15:20
theoretical and projected back-tested
15:22
agent hopeful scenarios you see at the
15:23
bad chicken dinner seminars and
15:25
and some proliferating on the internet
15:28
where people are
15:29
it looks too good to be true um
15:32
unfortunately
15:32
most of those people are not even
15:34
showing people
15:36
a quote from a deferred income annuity
15:38
so in other words in an income later
15:39
quote they're only showing
15:41
a variable annuity with an income rider
15:43
or indexed annuity with an income rider
15:45
i'm saying show them all show them all
15:47
um
15:48
and and quote them all i don't do
15:50
variable annuities just because i
15:52
i don't think you need it in my opinion
15:56
this is
15:56
stan the annuity man licensed in all 50
15:58
states arguably the number one annuity
16:00
agent in the country but if you need
16:03
market growth you don't need an annuity
16:05
and typically the
16:06
the attached writers we talk about are
16:08
not competitive with the same writers on
16:10
a fixed annuity so
16:12
we just stay in the fixed world because
16:14
it's simple and easy to understand etc
16:16
so remember on the customization of the
16:19
quotes when you
16:20
when you call us to get a quota you go
16:21
into our system and
16:23
at the annuityman.com and sign up for a
16:25
quote we can quote anything you want we
16:28
can do it life only we can do it life
16:29
with a period certain we can do it joint
16:31
life
16:32
joint life with installment refund cash
16:34
refund there's there's a myriad
16:36
of ways to structure it you just have to
16:39
answer the questions on you know how you
16:41
want your money to work
16:42
so that's important and you have to
16:45
remember buying a deferred income
16:47
annuity is is similar to buying an
16:48
immediate annuity it's like going
16:50
it's like buying a plane ticket you
16:51
punch in the numbers
16:53
and then you look at the the carriers
16:55
and by the way that the quotes
16:56
are good for seven to ten days i i say
16:59
annuity quotes are like a gallon of milk
17:01
they spoil
17:01
you have to re-quote them in seven to
17:03
ten days which is fine
17:04
and you have to lock them in and start
17:06
the paperwork to get that
17:08
that quote you just can't lock them in
17:09
and say well i'm thinking about it now
17:10
you gotta lock them in
17:11
and get going because they need that
17:14
paperwork in order to lock in that quote
17:16
and you have to understand you can't
17:17
time any of this i mean there's no way
17:20
to time
17:21
interest rates your time in interest
17:23
rates you're missing the point because
17:24
the primary pricing mechanism
17:26
of a deferred income annuity is what
17:28
it's your life expectancy
17:30
okay it's not interest rates interest
17:32
rates play a secondary role
17:35
in the pricing so you have to understand
17:36
that so people always say well i'm just
17:38
going to wait on interest rates well
17:39
you're missing the point there chester
17:42
okay
17:43
it's life expectancy the older you are
17:45
the higher the payments because the less
17:47
life expectancy you have which means
17:49
the less projected payments you have
17:52
it's really that simple you either want
17:54
to transfer risk or you don't you either
17:55
want a lifetime income stream or you
17:56
don't you can't time it
17:58
either the contractual guaranteed amount
18:00
fits or it does not
18:02
but you can't time it so what what we'll
18:04
do at the
18:06
to close all this is kind of go through
18:07
a few frequently asked questions and i
18:09
would encourage you to also go to
18:12
the annuityman.blog you can get there
18:14
through the annuityman.com
18:15
and the annuityman.blog has me blogging
18:18
and writing on everything because i do
18:20
write i'm a writer
18:21
i publish books but i write all the time
18:24
but i have
18:24
a lot of frequently asked questions on
18:26
there where i answer them you can
18:28
actually hit
18:28
see the question hit play and you can
18:30
hear my lovely voice
18:31
answer the question you can also you
18:33
know replay the podcast etc
18:35
but some of the questions that i get all
18:38
the time and
18:39
these might be repetitive because i'm at
18:41
the back of the book the book that you
18:42
should get the dia owner's manual
18:44
is a is it is a longevity annuity and a
18:46
deferred income annuity the same thing
18:48
yes they are the same thing longevity
18:49
annuity is a
18:51
is a is a phrase that journalists like
18:53
to use because it sounds cool i guess
18:56
but you know deferred income annuity
18:58
solves for longevity which is outliving
19:00
your money right it's a transfer of risk
19:03
the annuity companies on the hook to pay
19:04
you regardless of how
19:06
long you live a lot of people ask me how
19:09
many carriers
19:10
offer deferred income annuities i'm
19:12
going to just ballpark it between 15 to
19:14
25
19:15
but you got to quote them all you got to
19:17
see who's got that because
19:19
sometimes a carrier will be number one
19:21
for a couple months and then they will
19:23
have
19:23
met some of their capital raising goals
19:25
and they'll they won't be high again so
19:27
you can't say
19:27
hey stan i want x y and z company that's
19:30
a myopic way to go into it you would
19:32
never go
19:33
buy a plane ticket like that unless
19:34
you're trying to build points which is
19:36
not not smart you buy it for the best
19:39
price and the best value
19:40
a lot of people use these deferred
19:42
income annuities to handcuff their
19:44
wandering ambiguities of children that
19:46
are out there that don't seem that they
19:48
can pull it off
19:49
so you know you can use it for that as
19:51
well understand that there's no
19:53
accumulation value which might drive you
19:55
crazy
19:56
but they do enhance the payout the
19:57
longer that you the annuity company will
20:00
enhance the payout the longer you let
20:01
them hold on to the money
20:02
if you die before the payment start does
20:04
the money go poof only if you structure
20:06
it life only if you structure it life
20:08
with a period certain
20:09
or life with installment refund and cash
20:11
refund you can make sure that
20:13
money goes to your beneficiaries and the
20:14
evil annuity company does not
20:16
keep a penny with the deferring
20:18
community it can be structured so that
20:20
when you
20:20
and we do this with 99 unless people
20:23
tell us not to
20:24
if you die before the income starts 100
20:27
of that money goes back to your
20:28
beneficiaries the annuity company does
20:30
not keep it that's a
20:32
fallacy a lot of people you know say
20:34
well you know
20:35
nudity comes gonna keep the money when i
20:36
die that's just that's just dumb
20:39
and it's not the person's fault for
20:40
being dumb it's just the fact that
20:41
there's some really bad information out
20:43
there
20:43
and a lot of misinformation ironically
20:45
from the financial journalists etc that
20:47
really don't
20:48
understand annuities one of the reasons
20:50
this podcast is is happening
20:52
is there's a need for it there's a need
20:54
for the truth about these without some
20:56
veiled sales pitch
20:57
right you know you might not need an
20:59
annuity after you do all the research
21:01
get a quote read my books et cetera and
21:03
that's
21:03
good remember you can buy this type of
21:06
annuity inside of an ira inside of a
21:08
roth inside of a non-ira and
21:09
non-qualified account
21:11
there's no annual fees the commissions
21:14
are paid
21:15
by the annuity company to the agent you
21:17
never see it i don't know if that's good
21:18
or bad but it is what it is and they're
21:19
low compared to those complex products
21:21
that everyone's trying to jam down your
21:22
throat
21:23
people always continue to ask about that
21:25
you know inflation and colas increases
21:27
everybody wants the perfect product
21:29
right and and
21:30
if you ask enough agents they'll tell
21:31
you they have it they don't there's no
21:32
perfect product they'll have limitations
21:34
remember
21:35
if you attach a cost of living
21:36
adjustment increase
21:38
the annuity is going to lower the
21:39
payment it's just real simple
21:41
if you want to look at that then let's
21:43
quote both with and without a cost of
21:45
living adjustment increase
21:47
okay and you can see how they price it
21:49
it's math remember
21:50
annuities are math there's i mean this
21:52
is this is real simple stuff
21:55
don't make it complex that's about it
21:58
i mean in essence you know they are
22:01
immediate annuities
22:03
that you can defer one last thing is you
22:05
can add money
22:06
to a deferred income annuity in other
22:08
words let's say hey stan let's buy this
22:09
five-year deferral let's defer it for
22:12
five years a deferred income annuity
22:14
and then let's say year three you say
22:16
hey stan i think i'm gonna add money to
22:18
that
22:18
okay let's add some money you can do
22:20
that but what i would do
22:21
because i'm always doing it for will do
22:23
not might do highest contractual
22:24
guarantees
22:25
i would go out into the marketplace i
22:27
would quote everything again for that
22:28
additional money
22:29
to see if it made sense to buy a new dia
22:32
or if it made more sense to add money to
22:36
the
22:36
dia that you have so we're not just
22:38
going to carp on say yeah okay go ahead
22:40
and add it we're always going to be
22:41
shopping for the highest contractual
22:42
guarantee because
22:44
that's all i care about i don't do
22:45
hypotheticals theoreticals back tested
22:47
projected
22:48
pie in the sky unicorn chasing the
22:50
butterflies stuff
22:52
i do contractual only so whatever the
22:55
contractual guarantees are that's what
22:57
i'm shopping for and that's why i'm
22:58
shopping for the highest so with that
