Annuity Tax Advantages
Annuities have some strong tax advantages, here are a few of them.
- 1) Annuities Grow Tax Deferred: Similar to a “401k” annuities grow each year and you don’t have to pay tax on the gains. This is a huge advantage for anyone with non-qualified money. They get the effect of “triple compounding interest”, that means they earn interest, interest on their interest, and interest on the money that would have gone to taxes.
- 2) There are NO RMDs with Annuities: Unlike all other qualified funds (Roth IRA's excluded) annuities are not subject to the RMD rule (required minimum distribution) at age 70.5
These are just a few reasons annuities are so attractive in today's world.
