    I have been reading a lot about immediate annuities lately and I really have to address this question, are immediate annuities any good now a days? I will say this, they have their place. They are not what I would call the best vehicle for many people. These instruments have there place in a portfolio, but why would you want one in today’s world?

    An immediate annuity is great for people who want income for a specified number of years or for the rest of their life. The problem with an immediate annuity is the income is fixed, forever. There is absolutely no chance to keep up with inflation. These types of investments may make sense for a potion of your portfolio, but not a big portion.

    I read yesterday that some experts say 25 to 50% of your retirement savings should be invested in an immediate annuity. Are you crazy? Why in the world would you invest half of your nest egg in an investment that guarantees that you will not keep up with inflation? You wouldn’t and you shouldn’t. I would say no more than 10 to 15% should ever go into an immediate annuity.

    Some immediate annuities have inflation riders on them were your income will go up by 3 to 5% a year. I used to think this was a great feature, and it is if you buy one, but when you add up the amount of premium it takes to make this option work it does not make sense. It takes a larger amount of money in an immediate annuity with the inflation rider on it to generate decent income in the first few years, as compared to a regular immediate annuity.

    Managing a CAD Outsourcing Project
    We must first emphasize that here we are talking about outsourcing CAD projects, which is significantly easier than outsourcing software development or IT services (earlier articles of mine have explained why).This article also assumes that selection of the CAD providers has been completed with due diligence (the methods are described in an earlier article).As I mentioned in those prior articles, one of the most important ingredients for successful outsourcing is management of the ongoing project by you, the client. To quote from those articles (here 'outsourcer' means 'provide

    What is Entrepreneurship?
    In discussing entrepreneurship and writing articles on the subject, I have found that it aids understanding when we begin by agreeing on exactly what the word means to us.Entrepreneurship is the process of creating or seizing an opportunity, and pursuing it regardless of the resources currently controlled. The American Heritage Dictionary defines an entrepreneur to be “a person who organizes, operates, and assumes the risk for business ventures."These are rather abstract concepts for a person just beginning to consider whether they ought to start a business rather than take a j

    Session ID's Make Ecommerce Difficult for Search Engines
    By and large, the biggest problems faced by ecommerce software is search engine visibility. The problem arises as the result of major search engines being unable to crawl the entire contents of a shopping system. A major contributor to this problem is the use of what is known as session id's.Session id's are used by ecommerce software for the purpose of tracking visitor activity, populating shopping cart contents, and other uses. A session id usually appears in the url of a product page of an ecommerce system in the form of a string of letters and/or numbers which follow an ampersa

I will not get into speculation over where interest rates will go in the future, but it is safe to say that 30 year lows and an immediate annuities equals a problem in the future for you. The inflation rider is very interesting, but like I said it will take a lot more money to generate decent income in the first few years.

    I compare this to a variable annuity with a For-Life benefit and the variable annuity looks far better. For starters the income will be pretty darn close to an immediate annuity, a For-Life benefit usually allows you to withdrawal up to 5% from your initial investment for the rest of your life. Fees are not a concern, or should not be a concern for you, mainly because if you are willing to hand over your investment for an immediate annuity then what does it matter?

    With the For-Life benefit you have the ability to keep up with inflation. Usually the benefit has some kind of step-up in the benefit. This means that if you experience positive market growth then your benefit can increase with your investments. The typical step-up will range between 1 to 5 years, depending on the company. Your money can be invested into stocks, bonds or the fixed account (if offered) to address your risk tolerance concerns.

    The investment will fluctuate with the market, but as long as your income is stable what is the difference? The whole point is this; if you are giving your money away to an insurance company to pay you out a little bit of interest and basically your money back th
