Guaranteed Income

Retirement can last as long as 30 years and the number one risk for retirees is running out of money.

Over the past hundred years, there has not been one major incident in either the U.S. or Canada in which consumers lost their original investment with a life insurance company. Since the Great Recession of 2007, more than 386 banks have failed in the United States, while not one major North American life insurance company has gone out of business.
