Why Use an Annuity for Monthly Retirement Income?

Unlike investments that fluctuate with the market, annuities can provide dependable monthly income for life. This makes them especially attractive for people who want more predictability in retirement and less worry about outliving their savings. Some of the key benefits include:

  • Guaranteed Paychecks for Life: Convert a portion of your retirement savings into income you cannot outlive, regardless of market conditions or longevity.
  • Flexible Payout Choices: Choose single life, joint life, period certain, or a combination that fits your needs and protects your spouse.
  • Principal Protection: Your money is shielded from stock market losses with many fixed and indexed annuities, giving you security in volatile times.
  • Potential for Income Growth: Indexed annuities offer the opportunity for increasing payments over time, tied to the performance of market indexes.
  • Tax-Deferred Growth: Your earnings accumulate without annual taxation until withdrawn, helping you maximize long-term accumulation.
  • Legacy Benefits: Many contracts include death benefit options, ensuring your beneficiaries are protected and your legacy is preserved.

Who Should Consider This Type of Annuity?

Annuities designed for monthly retirement income are often a strong fit for:

  • Retirees without pensions who want a reliable source of income to supplement Social Security.
  • Couples who want joint lifetime income that continues even if one spouse passes away.
  • Pre-retirees looking for income to begin now or within the next few years, creating a bridge between work and full retirement.
  • Individuals who value stability and protection from market volatility over chasing higher returns.
  • Anyone who worries about outliving their retirement savings and wants the security of guaranteed lifetime income.

How Annuities Compare to Other Options

For many people, annuities are a safer, more reliable alternative to drawing income from investments. Unlike the stock market, annuities provide guarantees that your money won’t run out. While CDs and bonds can provide stability, they usually lack the lifetime income guarantees annuities offer. And unlike pensions, which are disappearing for many workers, annuities give you the power to create your own “personal pension” on your terms.

Example Scenario

Consider a 65-year-old retiree rolling over $300,000 from his IRA into a fixed indexed annuity with an income rider. At the time of publication, this strategy could provide:

  • Income beginning in 12 months
  • Guaranteed monthly payments of approximately $1,750 for life
  • Joint income continuation if his spouse is included on the rider

This creates stability and simplifies retirement planning—no more guesswork about how much to withdraw each month, and no risk of running out of money too soon. The retiree can enjoy peace of mind knowing his income is secure, while his spouse is also protected.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much monthly income can an annuity provide?
It depends on your premium amount, age, health, payout option (single or joint), and current carrier rates. We compare quotes from 100+ top-rated carriers and provide a personalized illustration before you decide.
When should I start income — now or later?
If you need paychecks immediately, an immediate income option may fit. If you can defer 12+ months, a fixed indexed annuity with an income rider can build a higher income base for larger future payments.
Can my income increase over time?
Yes, some contracts offer cost-of-living adjustments or income that can rise based on index performance. Others pay a level amount. We’ll show both options and trade-offs.
What happens to my money if I pass away?
Beneficiary options vary by contract. Many policies include a death benefit or period-certain options so remaining value passes to your beneficiaries instead of the carrier.
Are there fees or surrender charges?
Base fixed or fixed indexed annuities often have no ongoing policy fee. Optional riders may have annual charges. Exiting early can trigger surrender charges and possible market value adjustment (MVA).
Can I use IRA/401(k) funds without immediate taxes?
Yes. Direct rollovers and trustee-to-trustee transfers preserve tax-deferred status. Income you take later is generally taxed as ordinary income; consult your tax advisor for your situation.
Do I need a medical exam to qualify?
Most fixed and fixed indexed annuities do not require medical underwriting for issuance. Some income guarantees or riders have age limits or product-specific rules.
Should I choose single life or joint life income?
Single life pays more to one person; joint life pays for as long as either spouse lives, usually at a slightly lower monthly amount. We’ll model both so you can balance income and survivor protection.
