Hi there, Stan the Annuity Man, America's annuity agent, licensed in all 50 states,
0:04
America's top agent and the tallest, 6'6". All you guys out there trying to sell
0:11
annuities that are like 6'9", forget about it. I'm talking about 6-6-6 with some credibility and
0:15
some stats. Early income retirement planning, early income annuity planning. You're young,
0:21
you're vibrant like me, and you've retired or you're thinking about retirement. You're like
0:25
in your 50s or your 40s, for heck's sake. Can you retire with annuities?
0:32
The answer is yes. But I'm not going to tell you the answers until after this.
0:42
Alright, so, I walk in this morning, and the people behind the camera, who are just geniuses,
0:46
I mean, they're unbelievable. It's Big C and Dr. V. But I asked Dr. V, who stands for Venezuela.
0:51
I said, "How's Argentina, player?" He's like, "I'm from Venezuela, dude." I went North Dakota,
0:56
South Dakota, you know, North Carolina, South Carolina. But I'm assuming Dr. V from
1:04
Venezuela's going, "There's a difference, player." I understand. I'm a little geographically
1:09
challenged, as they say. So, other thing, too, is Big C was like, "Didn't you mean to say 5'9"
1:13
instead of 6'9"?" No, actually, you know, I've been just kidding around. I am the top agent in
1:18
the country, but I also say I'm the tallest. So, I had some jack wagon from wherever. Pakypy go,
1:23
I'm 6'9" and a half and played for Buffalo. And I say, I don't care. You've probably sold like
1:29
three annuities. I'm having fun. Okay. If I say I was like the strongest or I had the best six-pack
1:36
abs, would you question that? No, you would not question that. Early income annuity planning or
1:41
planning for annuities when you're young. Can you do that? What's the tax ramification? Stan the
1:47
Annuity Man. Well, first of all, I don't give tax advice. You need to see your CPA and tax
1:51
lawyer. But you can buy lifetime income. There are some products that you can do that with.
1:56
Let's say single premium immediate annuities, the granddaddy of all annuities, the transfer of risk
2:02
to the large annuity companies, A++ or better, in most situations, is a pension. No moving parts,
2:08
no market attachments, no annual fees. It's a straight transfer of risk that's going to pay
2:12
for as long as you are breathing. And when your Learjet hits the mountain, we can structure it so
2:18
that 100% of the money goes to your family and not the evil annuity company. If you have daughters
2:22
like I have, 29 and 27, now you're saying, "No way, Stan." No, it's true. I've set it up to where
2:29
they get all the money, but they get it in payment form, so they don't buy the Lamborghini with cash.
2:34
So, you got to be careful, though, with annuities. The IRS and our friends there, they have a rule
2:38
that with annuities, unless structured properly, if you take money out before you're 59 and a half
2:45
years old, and please don't ask me who came up with 59 and a half. I have no clue. You know, I'm
2:50
envisioning this room of politicians going, "What do you think it should be? 58?" Nah, that sounds
2:54
crazy. How about 59 and a quarter? Nah. What do you think about 59 and a half? Perfect. I mean,
3:01
who comes up with that? But only politicians. But the reason that's key is if you don't structure
3:07
it correctly and you start taking income or distributions from an annuity before you're 59
3:12
and a half, the IRS goes, "Thank you very much." That'll be a 10% penalty every time you do that.
3:17
Now, the IRS, and I read their, I guess, isn't that a manual? No, it's not a manual. It's like
3:22
their code. And one of the codes in the IRS book, when I'm reading it at night with the jazz playing
3:27
slowly in the background, is a section called 72(T). 72(T), in English, means if you structure it
3:34
for like a lifetime payment or series of equal payments, then the IRS is going to look away.
3:40
That's the IRS right there. Look away. And they're not going to incur that 10% penalty. So, yes, you
3:47
can do that. But be very careful if Johnny AppleSeed agent says, "Hey, I got this annuity, gets a
3:53
bonus and the thing and this and that and up and this and it's the best thing since sliced bread
3:58
and I love sliced bread." If he says something like that, you got to go always with these type
4:05
of situations. Even if you work with mwah, that's French for Stan the Annuity Man. We're going to
4:10
work in conjunction with your CPA and tax lawyer. They have to bless it. That's an annuity blessing.
4:15
They got to bless that strategy so that you're not going to get in trouble with the IRS. Now,
4:20
we've been to the annuity rodeo before. So, we have no problem with that, pointing out
4:25
the law and helping your CPA and tax lawyer if they have some affliction to the word annuity,
4:30
but we can structure it like that. So, let's go backwards a little bit. You can do this. You can
4:36
have a lifetime income stream if you're pre 59 and a half. First of all, I'm going to ask you,
4:41
tell me again, why you're wanting to buy a lifetime income stream this early in your
4:45
life? Because remember, annuity lifetime income payments, regardless of the type of annuity,
4:50
are primarily based on your life expectancy or life expectancies if joint at the time you take
4:56
the payment. The older you are, the higher the payment. Eerily familiar to the other annuity
5:00
you own, Social Security. So, I'm going to have to listen to you go, "Hey,
5:04
player, you got like 35 years of life expectancy. Why are you buying a lifetime income stream?"
5:09
And you might say, because it's a proven thing to do and I'm a very smart person and I went to MIT
5:14
and Stanford and got triple degrees. That's fine. I still want to know why. If you just want to say,
5:19
okay, I had a guy the other day that I was on a live event, and he's like, I'm worth 25
5:24
billion in crypto or some nuts thing like that. I'm like, okay, player, email me. He did. He's
5:29
worth some money. I mean, he's liquid, as they say. And I said to him, here's the good news
5:33
about a lifetime income stream 59 and a half. I mean, it's a lifetime income stream. You're never
5:38
going to outlive it as long as you're breathing. You're transferring that risk for longevity. But
5:42
the downside is you're young, and they're not going to give you that whisbang deal because it's
5:47
about your life expectancy. So, in conclusion, be careful. There are ways to structure it so that
5:53
the IRS does not penalize you pre 59 and a half, but just put it in your head and think about those
6:00
politicians at the table going, "Hey, man, 59 and a half, that's it. That's the one. That's the
6:06
number. That's the bogey. That's it. That's what we're going to do." Don't know how that happened,
6:10
but that's the rule. That's the rule the IRS follows, and that's the rule that you have to
6:14
be aware of. But if you're going to solve it, we're going to solve it using the 72(T) rule with
6:19
the IRS. That's if, I guess, if you go to section 72 in the IRS code book and look for T. It's under
6:26
there. I don't know. But that's what it is. And it says equal pay. It's pretty detailed, but I'm
6:33
going to put it in English or Stanglish, as they say. Did you know that was a language see, Stanglish?
6:38
It's Stan the Annuity Man in Southern English. It's a series of equal payments over a
6:42
period of time of which the IRS then, remember annuity blessing, they'll bless it so that 10%
6:48
penalty won't occur. Bottom line, you need to go to my site, theannuityman.com. Schedule a call.
6:54
Underneath the schedule call button, it says free consultation. What does free mean? That means you
6:59
don't pay anything and you get to run this by us. And oh, by the way, this is a whisbanger,
7:03
as they say, see. I oversee all cases. I literally do. We have thousands of cases run through. I'm
7:08
always looking and looking and reading and looking and reading and looking. Even though everyone in
7:12
our building's licensed in all 50 states, I want to make sure we get it right. I want to make sure
7:16
if there are any specific cases like this that are really kind of, as they say at Stanford,
7:22
funky, then I'm going to get involved. Okay? One more thing. I want you to do me a favor. You know,
7:28
you can hit subscribe if you want to and like and put comments and all. You can do all that.
7:32
But above my head, magically appearing above my head, and it's going to count down, you're going
7:37
to be able to click a video that explains how the process works if you did make a decision to buy an
7:44
annuity with the Annuity Man. No, that's not being presumptive or assumptive or a hammer looking for
7:50
a nail. But if you want to know how the process works, click that video. See you next time.
