What Is An Insured Annuity?
An insured annuity is essentially a prescribed life annuity and a term life insurance policy, purchased together. An annuity provides a guaranteed regular income stream, while a term 100 life insurance policy provides a cash payout upon death. The combination of the benefits provided by these products is ideal for those seeking guaranteed income and the preservation of their capital. An insured annuity pays a higher guaranteed (after-tax) income for life, compared to most traditional alternatives.
An insured annuity provides:
The highest possible guaranteed income for life.
Income security through regular income payment.
Some distinct tax advantages.
Tax-deferred growth.
Preservation of capital.
How Does An Insured Annuity Work?
Using only a portion of the regular annuity payments, you purchase a level premium term insurance policy equal to the value of the life annuity. The death benefit of the life insurance policy is paid directly to your named beneficiary tax-free, allowing you to preserve your capital for your heirs.
If you are considering an insured annuity, ask yourself the following questions:
Do I want to maximize my income for retirement?
Am I concerned about guaranteeing the safety of my retirement income?
Am I concerned about the safety of my capital for the eventual transfer to my heirs?
How long am I willing to hold my investments?
Would I like to increase my after-tax guaranteed retirement income?
Who Are Insured Annuities For?
For individuals who are retired, or are approaching retirement, an insured annuity is certainly an investment worth considering. As well as, providing higher guaranteed income to complement other sources of income, an insured annuity allows you to preserve your capital for the eventual transfer to your heirs.
An insured annuity should be considered as an important component of a larger diversified plan.

"Mark's knowledge about the various Critical Illness insurance products in the marketplace was exceptional. What most impressed me was that he was much more than Critical Illness insurance. His overall approach and recommendations were very diverse and I have since referred him to our accountant to assist with tax and estate planning strategies. I also appreciated Mark's cautious approach with the underwriting of my application... this ensured that I got the right amount of coverage that I wanted and needed."

"I responded to Mark's radio advertising on 680News, and he made it all so easy for me. He showed up on time, his cell phone never rang in our meetings and he returned my calls promptly. There was no hard sales push and he didn't sell me something that I didn't need. That's refreshing because we are all tired of being pushed to buy things that aren't necessary for us. I would recommend Mark Halpern to any busy and successful person who needs a high level professional and personal touch."

"You just never know... I remember thinking about critical illness insurance... do I need it, how much is reasonable, what's the cost, and so on. I considered not getting it, as getting sick was such a remote possibility. So I met with Mark and despite those doubts I finally bought a policy, and just over two years later I was diagnosed with prostate cancer. No one plans on getting sick, life just happens. Thanks Mark, for all your advice and guidance throughout the entire process. I encourage every reader to do the same right now while you are healthy."
