Retire on your own timeline

By Ken McEntee

Bill and Brody Fiesler, father and son owners of Annuity & Estate Planning Concepts, have seen it too many times. Somebody delays retirement then tragically is not around to enjoy it very long.

“Unfortunately, people sometimes delay retirement because they’re afraid of running out of money,” Brody says. “Sound planning and the right product can help to avoid that problem.”

Below, Bill and Brody explain more:

Q: I’m concerned I may have to change my retirement timeline if an economic downturn reduces the value of my 401(k). How can I prevent that?
A: After working so hard for decades, you deserve to retire on your planned schedule. Directing your IRA or 401(k) into the proper retirement vehicle, such as an indexed, annuity-based product with built-in downside market loss protection, can help protect the value of your retirement account against market downturns so you can retire on your own timeline.

Q: When should I start looking into an annuity?
A: It’s never too early, but if you’re in your 50s and expect to retire in your early- to mid-60s, you may want to start exploring your options and planning your retirement timeline now. You can enhance your retirement money with guaranteed income growth and bonuses in any market environment.

Q: How does an indexed annuity work?
A: Through a contract guarantee, the insurance company that issues the annuity ensures you will share in the gains when the market goes up, but when the market is flat or goes down, your money is locked in—you won’t lose anything.
