Hi there. Stan The Annuity Man, America's Annuity Agent. Licensed all 50 states. I
[3]
have big props. Props to my big props, producer. I hold in
[8]
my hand a darn big phone. A big darn phone. That
[11]
would be a B-D-P. And this is a B-D-C.
[15]
Big darn calculator. Why do I do that? It's because we're talking about retirement
[18]
calculators. How much a 60-year old has... You know, I
[22]
get that question a lot. "How much does a 60-year old have,
[24]
how much money does a 70-year old have in retirement?"
[27]
Etc. We're going to cover those things. I'm going to give you some stuff
[30]
that my staff research that are pretty cool.
[32]
The bottom line is go to my site at the annuityman.com. We have annuity
[35]
calculators you can use. But I do encourage you to use those first then
[38]
set a time with me. Then I can get involved in the process
[42]
because most quotes are customizable. And you don't know what you don't know. I
[46]
mean... So, you're going into the annuity space, you're trying to learn.
[49]
You go to my site i send you my books. You set a time and I get on this big
[53]
phone and I talk to you and we have a one-on-one.
[55]
I like that, producer. But annuities are customizable. So, there's not just a one-
[59]
size-fits all. Even though a lot of people sell them as such.
[62]
I want you to think... When you think in annuities or you think in retirement
[65]
calculators, it's all about what you want and what
[69]
your goals are and what you want to contractually solve for.
[72]
Forget the products that are pitching, being pitched to you.
[76]
Forget all that. Forget all the nonsense. Forget all the ads. Forget all of that.
[80]
It comes down to a customizable solution. And hopefully, I
[86]
can be a part of that and help you that. But not until we hear some music.
[98]
So, what's the average 401K balance of a 60-year old? We looked it up. It's
[102]
a little bit less than 200,000. Which isn't enough to live off of. We all know
[107]
that. I mean, we know that. I read some site. I thought this was
[110]
pretty interesting. They think you should have
[113]
8 times your final salary in a 401K. I love these arbitrary
[117]
things like that. But that was kind of interesting as well. But most people
[120]
don't have that. Most people they have a good lump sum in
[123]
their 401K and they're looking at their investments as a whole and they're
[126]
saying, "Okay, I need to go to some of these sites and
[128]
do some retirement calculators and figure out this. And
[131]
I'd rather not speak to anybody because I don't want anybody to sell me and I
[134]
don't want to get on anyone's mailing list and I don't want
[137]
them to hound me and call me and show up at my door." I get
[141]
that. I'm the same person. I mean, when I
[145]
started the annuityman.com a long, long time ago because I used to be with
[148]
Morgan Stanley, Dean Witter, Payne Webber or Ubs,
[150]
I don't like people calling me and trying to sell me something. I want all
[153]
the information that I want. I want to request it, I want to get it in. I want
[156]
you to leave me the heck alone so I can make a decision on my terms and
[160]
my time frame. That's how we we've done it at the annuity man. People
[164]
always say to me, "Well, you know, annuities aren't bought. They're sold. All annuities
[169]
are sold." You come work with me. You're going to
[173]
buy it. You know, here's the way the typical process goes:
[176]
You go to our site, use our retirement calculators, our annuity calculators.
[179]
Then you schedule call with me. Okay? If I haven't sent you the books by then, I've
[183]
sent you the books you can sign my site. I'll send them to you for free.
[186]
We get on the phone. We do all the the talking. We go through
[190]
all your your goals. I ask you the 2 questions --"What do you want the money to
[193]
contractually do? And when do you want those contractual guarantees to start?" I
[196]
do all of that. I send you the quotes. I send you all the information that you
[200]
need. If you want a specimen policy, I send you that.
[203]
And then I leave you alone. I really do. I leave you alone.
[206]
Now, you can email or call with questions just to clarify things if you have any
[210]
specific questions. But here's how the buying process goes:
[213]
With every single person, thousands and thousands of people,
[217]
all 50 states. I get an email that says, 'Hey, Stan.
[221]
Ready to move forward. What's the next steps?" Typically
[224]
I've explained those next steps to you during the last call.
[227]
But what's the next steps? Ready to move forward. Or they'll call me, "Hey, Stan.
[230]
Ready to go." Calling me, emailing me. That's how the
[234]
process works. That's how it should work. So, our retirement calculators, annuity
[239]
calculators aren't some guys to get your information. And to
[243]
just pound you into oblivion. No. It's for you to understand the
[247]
contractual realities of what's out there. Remember that when
[250]
you're looking for lifetime income with annuities...
[252]
And annuities are the only product on the planet that solve contractually
[256]
for lifetime income. You can never outlive the money, that's what lifetime
[259]
means. You know, you can go and use our
[261]
calculators all day long and look at the numbers.
[263]
And start looking at, "Hey, this is what this amount is going to pay."
[267]
But remember that income from annuities is primarily based on your life
[270]
expectancy or life expectancies if it's joint with the spouse or partner
[274]
at the time you take the payment. The older you are, the higher the payment.
[277]
Sound familiar? Social security anyone? Best annuity on
[280]
the planet for inflation. Social security, the higher the older you are the higher
[284]
the payment. I hear it all the time. "Well, Stan... You know, I was thinking about
[287]
taking my social security at 65. But I'm going to wait till i'm 70 because when
[291]
I'm 70, the payments are higher." Why? Because you're older.
[294]
Same thing with annuities. Do not make it any more difficult than that.
[298]
Do not look at annuities as investments because they're not. They're transfer
[302]
risk products. That's all you're doing is transferring the risk to the carrier to
[305]
pay you for the rest of your life. Or to pay you and your spouse. One of the
[308]
things that I hear all the time from people that are looking at annuities for
[311]
income is that "I've never bought an annuities, Stan
[314]
because when you die, the money goes poof." Well, that's one of about 40 ways to
[318]
structure it. That's called Life Only. It's the highest
[320]
payment but you don't have to do that. You can structure it
[323]
contractually so that you're going to get a lifetime income stream.
[326]
And when you die the income stream, continues uninterrupted and unchanged
[330]
for your spouse. And when they die, whatever's left in the account
[333]
goes to the beneficiaries. Meaning that the evil annuity company doesn't keep a
[336]
penny. Surprised? Don't be. That's the way that
[339]
we will set up the contract. That's the reason
[342]
it's important for us to talk. Because I'm going to ask you those questions
[345]
about you your spouse your partner, what the goals are, what the overall
[349]
assets are. Do you need lifetime income? Do you need principal protection? Do you
[352]
need legacy? Do you want to solve for confinement care? What do you want to do?
[356]
And then I'm going to go at it trying to use as little amount of money possible
[360]
to solve contractually for that goal. Then let me repeat that.
[364]
I'm going to try to use as little money as possible
[368]
to contractually solve for your goal. It's really that simple.
[372]
You don't put all your money into annuities. The annuity industry doesn't
[375]
even want that. In fact, they want about 50%
[378]
tops. That mean you have to buy one. But if you decide that annuities fit,
[382]
about 50 tops of your overall investable assets, non-home, but investable assets
[387]
they feel comfortable with in annuities. Regardless of type.
[391]
Now, the regardless of type part of it is where I come in because i want to make
[395]
sure that you're choosing the right type. If you
[398]
ask the question --What do you want the money to contractually do? And when do
[401]
you want those contractual guarantees to start? Those are the 2
[403]
questions that you need to ask, period. Again, what do you want the money to
[408]
contractually do. Underline contractual. And when do you want those contractual
[412]
guarantees to start? From those 2 answers, then I can match you
[415]
up with the right annuity that will provide the highest contractual
[418]
guarantee. Or from those two answers, I'll tell you
[421]
you don't need an annuity. Okay. So, the average 401K balance for a
[424]
60 year old according to my staff and them looking into it
[427]
is around 200,000. Let's say it's a little bit more than that. Let's say it's
[430]
400,000. Is that enough? It depends. It depends on
[434]
your lifestyle. It depends on how much income
[436]
you need. It depends on when you want to turn on the income. It depends on
[440]
if you want to add a spouse or partner to that. It depends on how you want to
[442]
structure from a legacy standpoint for any unused money when you die.
[446]
It all depends. So, when we go back to the retirement calculator question
[450]
and everyone has their retirement calculator and everyone thinks theirs is
[454]
best. You know, I think simple as complex, right?
[456]
The simplicity of an annuity quote really comes down to
[461]
what you're trying to contractually achieve. And what I would encourage you
[464]
to do is go to my site at the annuityman.com.
[467]
Use the quotes at your leisure. And if there does come a point in time that you
[470]
want to connect and really dig in and let me weigh in on
[474]
how I think it should be structured based upon your answers to me. Not based
[478]
upon what I want. Based upon on what you want, then that's the
[482]
way to go. I'll tell you a good story and I'll leave you with this.
[485]
I got a call the other day and you know, it's the typical
[488]
one-product pitch to the guy and the guy just kept going
[492]
through all the benefits. This guy had listed none of the limitations just the
[495]
benefits. And you know, I say to him like I say to
[498]
everybody, "Don't let the product fit into your life. Let your life fit
[503]
into the product." And if I leave you with one thing,
[505]
remember that your life, your specific life, your customized life,
[512]
your one of a kind life and family needs to fit into the product
[518]
as a customized product. The product needs to be customized around that life
[522]
of yours. That's what it needs to happen.
[525]
Retirement calculators can give you all kinds of numbers.
[527]
Retirement calculators can give you all kinds of stats. Annuity calculators can
[531]
give you the numbers. But at the end of the day, it needs to be
[535]
about you. And so, instead of the agent saying, "I've
[538]
got this product fitted into your life." You need to say, "No.
[541]
I've got this. I got this life. I need to customize the product." And with
[546]
that, I need you to hit the subscribe button and I'll
[548]
see you on the next Stan The Annuity man video.
