SOCIAL SECURITY EXPLORATION
Today, nearly 90% of Americans age 65 and older receive Social Security income benefits.¹ Will your Social Security benefits be enough in retirement?
To help ensure you have a strategy in place to address some of those concerns, you may find it helpful to work with someone with experience in using life insurance and fixed annuities to help solidify your retirement strategy with valuable protection and guarantees.*
Bridge the gap in your retirement strategy. We can help:
-
Review your Social Security and retirement statements to determine potential retirement income shortfalls where a fixed annuity may be a potential solution.
​
-
Explain the importance of routinely verifying your Social Security statement earnings record for accuracy.
​
-
Explore strategies that may enhance the benefits available to married couples.
​
-
Review your unique situation to determine potential eligibility for other types of benefits (ex-spousal, dependent or caregiver benefits).
​
-
Examine potential effects of taxation on Social Security benefits in light of other sources of retirement income.

*Fixed index annuities are insurance products that are designed to meet long-term needs for retirement income. Early withdrawals may result in loss of principal and credited interest due to surrender charges. Any distributions are subject to ordinary income tax and, if taken prior to age 59 ½, an additional 10% federal tax.
