Tom Hegna: Talking The Annuity Talk & Walking The Annuity Walk

In this episode, The Annuity Man and Tom Hegna discuss: 

• There are no second chances in retirement 
• Why the bond market is down right now 
• Annuities should be bought and not sold 
• Investing wisely into cryptocurrency 

 

Key Takeaways: 

• When it comes to retirement, there’s no dress rehearsal; there are no second chances. We need to get it right the first time. That’s why you must have at least your basic living expenses covered with a guaranteed lifetime. 
• Inflation is at 9%, yet we got a 30-year bond under 3%. That could mean that the bond market, the smartest market in the world, sees something really bad on the horizon. 
• People don’t think about what would happen if they died or if the market stays down; somebody needs to stimulate them. However, it remains true that annuities should be bought and not sold.
• Put only 1% of your portfolio into cryptocurrency. It won’t hurt a bit if it goes to zero, it won’t hurt a bit, but if it gets huge, it’ll help a lot. 

 

"Retirement is about income; it’s not about assets. As a minimum in retirement, you should cover your basic living expenses with guaranteed lifetime income… " —  Tom Hegna.
