Retirees can rely on annuities as a source of guaranteed income for life
Nebraska Governor Pete Ricketts recognizes June as Annuity Awareness Month
LINCOLN, Neb., Aug. 3, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- With industry surveys showing that most retirees' #1 fear is running out of money,1 Insurance Agency Marketing Services, Inc. (IAMS) is pleased to highlight Annuity Awareness Month and the importance of annuities as a vehicle for secure retirement income.
On Monday, July 11, IAMS' Executive Vice President and General Counsel Chris Conroy joined Nebraska Governor Pete Ricketts at the State Capitol in Lincoln to declare June Annuity Awareness Month in Nebraska.
"Annuities play a critical role as a safe money alternative for so many seniors, especially in our current environment of market volatility," Conroy said. "With nearly 70,000 Nebraskans reaching age 65 each year, we want to do everything we can to help protect their hard-earned dollars and help them retire with financial dignity."
Annuities – insurance contracts that provide a guaranteed amount of money on a periodic basis for a specified length of time – are invaluable as a source of income you cannot outlive.
They deliver:
- Principal protection in a time of high market uncertainty
- Earnings on contributions that grow tax-free
- Guaranteed death benefits
Ricketts signed an official proclamation during the July 11 ceremony. "Thank you for highlighting the importance of financial literacy and annuities in retirement planning," he said. "Especially in our aging society, it's important for people to be prepared."
