  • You don't have to have an MBA to understand annuities.

    Reading about annuities is only interesting when you are faced with retirement and faced with living the best life you can on a limited amount of money. At that time, a person needs to understand all aspects of making that amount of money last the rest of their life. This book explained more about the workings of annuities much better than the financial advisor I hired. The same one I am firing. This book is well written and explains annuities in understandable language. I now know more about my investments and the 'watch-outs' with various kinds of annuities. I would highly recommend this book to everyone making decisions about their futures.
