Annuity Think Tank, the #1 site for everything about annuities, just released a brand new video about personal pension plans this week
(PRWEB) January 26, 2012
The common definition of the word pension is to describe the actual payments a person receives upon their retirement. Furthermore, the common pension, known as a defined benefit retirement plan, has slowly become obsolete to be replaced by the modern defined contribution plan or 401k. Today we are beginning to hear the phrase Personal Pension Plan used in conjunction with retirement income planning. And many consumers and advisors have been asking exactly what is a Personal Pension Plan?
Well, today’s personal pension usually comes in the form of an annuity. A contract between a consumer and an insurance company where the consumer gives them a certain amount of premium up front, and in return they give the consumer a certain contractually guaranteed lifetime income stream at some point in the future. These income annuities are called personal pension plans due to the pension-like lifetime income they produce when the annuity owner needs retirement income. Some of the advantages of a personal pension annuity include more flexibility with income options, death benefits, nursing home benefits, and the ability to lump sum your remaining accumulation value. The negative is that there isn’t an actual company or government entity proving the money.
