Genworth
Risk and Planning for Retirement -- Think Genworth
Ask your producers to discuss the following: Mr. & Mrs. Client, the value of your money over time, say 6 or 7 years from now, is impacted by the risks you take. What risks are important for you to avoid? Here are some which can have negative impact on the value of your accounts over time:
- Paying too much federal and state taxes (SPDA are Tax Deferred, a SPIA is Tax Efficient)
- Poorly performing investments, known as Market Risk (Genworth's SPDA rates are Guaranteed, SPIA benefit amount is Guaranteed)
- Not planning well enough for retirement (Genworth's SPDA rates are Guaranteed, and SPIA can cover essential expenses)
- Not maintaining purchasing power (Genworth's SPDA rates are Guaranteed, SPIA can include Cost of Living Adjustment)
Consider Genworth, our rates are competitive:
