Ep. 42 – Annuities – Why Ever Use Them – Part 5

Guaranteed income options can be limited in retirement, but an annuity income rider can help.

Your Social Security benefit and pension are both types of guaranteed income and, from a retirement planning perspective, they should cover your essential income needs. But what if they don’t?
