Annuity rate comparison
Compare a savings rate with fixed and fixed indexed annuity rates
Enter a rounded amount and the rates you have been quoted. Nothing is sent anywhere and no account numbers are needed — this is a side-by-side illustration to bring to your review.
Savings and CD interest is taxed every year, so that column compounds on the after-tax rate. Annuity growth is tax deferred, so tax is shown as if you withdrew everything at the end of the term. A fixed indexed annuity credits the index return only up to the cap, with a 0% floor in a down year.
After 7 years
Savings or CD, after yearly taxes
$181,122
Multi-year fixed annuity, tax deferred
$215,323
$200,952 if fully withdrawn and taxed at the end
Fixed indexed annuity, credited at 6.50%
$233,098
$214,816 if fully withdrawn and taxed at the end
On these assumptions, the fixed indexed annuity ends about $33,694 ahead of the taxable account after tax over this term.

Questions people ask first
- What are the main types of annuities?
- Fixed annuities earn a set rate. Fixed indexed annuities tie growth to an index with downside protection. Variable annuities invest in subaccounts with market risk. Immediate annuities start income right away.
- Which type is best?
- There is no single best type. The right choice depends on your goal — income, growth, protection or a combination.
- Are annuities safe?
- Safety depends on the type and the issuing insurance company's financial strength. Fixed and fixed indexed products protect principal; variable products do not.
- Can I get my money back?
- Most annuities have surrender periods where withdrawals carry a charge. We review liquidity features before any recommendation.
- Is the review free?
- Yes. The review and initial consultation are free.
