Please draw on a piece of paper three columns like this. Introduce and have a general discussion relating to: There are basically three categories of investments, we can chose to earn a fixed rate of interest, a linked rate of interest or a market rate of return. Have a discussion of the most common investments/policies that generally fall into one of the three columns. FDIC insured bank CD's and Insurance Fixed Annuities in left column, ELCD's and FiA's in column two to use as example of earning a linked interest rate although TIPS and I-Bonds can fall in this category as well. Market Rate are things like Stocks, MF's, Bonds, BF's, Real-estate and variable annuities. All of these earn based on some form of market investment and markets have cycles. Discuss the pro's and con's of both columns as well as limitations such as penalties for early withdrawals in column 1 and 2, possibility to lose principle in column three and that annuities are backed by the claims paying ability of the issuing insurance company and not insured in the same way as FDIC insured bank CD's.

There are primarily two types of annuities, fixed and variable annuities. A third type is a fixed index annuity but it is a fixed annuity that pays out its interest in a different manner than a fixed rate annuity. Have a discussion on all three types, discuss how interest is earned, costs or accounts and limitations such as penalty for early withdrawals. This is a short discussion and specific products are not mentioned or addressed.
