About The Lifetime Annuity Rates

The lifetime annuity rates table applies generally across the board to give you an idea of what the income may be.

But on the other hand, we need to use an annuity calculator to zoom in on your particular situation to see which company has the best annuity rates to give you the highest lifetime annuity income.

The lifetime annuity payout you receive is based on what you want for your situation. Perhaps you need a lifetime annuity income for yourself and your partner. But you also want higher income until one of you dies. And those results are obtained by splitting your capital between a joint and a single lifetime annuity. The joint lifetime annuity expires on the 2nd death and could have no guarantee option while the single annuity income could be a limited lifetime annuity such as a term certain annuity.

And the variation of these lifetime incomes is brought home to us everytime we receive the annuity payouts for any particular client.
