These 99 Retirement Tips May Surprise You

Tip #18: Beware of Annuities

Fisher clients tend not to have annuities in their portfolios, and with good reason. These complicated, difficult-to-understand contracts favor the companies that write them, not you. Annuity salespeople get high commissions that come straight off the top of your investment savings. You can manage your retirement-income security needs in ways that'll cost you less. Said simply, if someone's going to guarantee you an income in an uncertain world, they're going to charge you enough to ensure the odds are in their favor - not yours.
