When it comes to investing, many would automatically default to stocks because of their exciting nature. As a financial professional who has served in the life insurance and annuity space for over a decade, I’m more risk-averse and would prefer guaranteed products that offer more security. Examples are Cash Value Life Insurance that offers a guaranteed floor and Guaranteed Income Annuity that offers a guaranteed income stream in retirement.
Definition of guaranteed products: Financial products that provide guarantees in a variety of aspects such as rate of return, amount of income it will produce, and/or other benefits. Guaranteed products are meant for the long term - money you set aside and forget about it (until a way later date like retirement)!
