Planning for your retirement can be broken down into three primary objectives. For most retirees, these three objectives allow them to meet their retirement goals. These retirement objectives are:
Each of these objectives is best met through products that optimize for that objective. Diversifying across a portfolio provides you protection and helps ensure that all of your goals are met.
At Blueprint Income, we specialize in the income goal by offering a marketplace of simple income annuities. We also have a marketplace of fixed annuities for those looking for a guaranteed return. In both cases, we aim to have the most insurers (30+ now) and most competitive pricing out there.
At Blueprint Income, we're working to make the annuity market a simpler and easier space to navigate. Each day we're focused on offering a better service and product that makes sense for you.
The habits that help us build our retirement nest-egg also prevent us from spending as much as we can in retirement. Annuities can help solve this challenge of underconsumption in retirement.
Bonds and income annuities have unique features that make them important components of your retirement portfolio. Understanding the role each plays in preparing for retirement can help you optimize the conservative, or safe, portion of your portfolio.
