Show Notes

Are you relying on a variable annuity for retirement income? You might want to think twice.

In this episode, I break down the hidden risks of variable annuities—from high fees to market volatility—and compare them to fixed indexed annuities (FIAs), which offer guaranteed income and protection from market losses.

What You’ll Learn:
✔️ The true cost of variable annuity fees and how they eat away at your savings
✔️ Why variable annuity income is not guaranteed—and could be cut in half
✔️ A real-world case study comparing payouts from variable vs. fixed indexed annuities
✔️ Why major insurance companies are pulling out of the variable annuity market

By the end of this episode, you’ll know exactly which annuity option protects your retirement income—and which one could leave you short when you need it most.
