How do you know if you're getting the best interest rates on your investments? Believe it or not, fixed interest rate annuities are about the best rates you can find.
What is a fixed annuity?
It is a contract that allows you to build growth for a specific time period at a guaranteed rate of return. It acts a lot like a CD. There are minor differences. For instance, one has better tax advantages than the other, while one has better liquidity features. These savings products are the most plain vanilla annuities you can use.
Whether you are considering a CD or a fixed annuity, it is important to make sure it is suitable based primarily on when you might need the money and other liquidity factors.
