Retirees and their advisors can make the best decisions by informing themselves as to the merits of annuities compared with other methods of generating retirement income.

This article provides the reader with methods to make these comparisons, and attempts to dispel some of the misinformation and misperceptions surrounding annuities. It also explains that annuities can be used strategically as an important part of an individual’s retirement income portfolio.
