Choosing Between Annuities and Target Date Funds for Retirement Planning

Reported 19 days ago

A couple, John and Susan, weighing their financial options with $1.2 million in an IRA and $750,000 in cash must decide whether to invest in annuities or target date funds. Annuities provide a guaranteed income, particularly beneficial for retirees, but can be affected by inflation. On the other hand, target date funds adjust investments based on the time remaining until a set financial goal, which may not suit those already in retirement. Ultimately, the choice depends on their financial goals and risk tolerance, making it advisable to consult with a financial advisor.
