Message: [QUOTE="temery, post: 4465367, member: 1"] 'My grandmother and her sisters were born in 1908, 1909, and 1910. Their father was loaded, but lost a bundle in the '29 stock market crash. He made another bundle in the '30s and bought an annuity for each of his daughters. My grandmother died in her 80s, one sister in her 90s, and another at 101. Outside of those who sell annuities, they are the only three people I've known who benefited from an annuity. Im sure others have made out well, but there's a reason companies make money selling annuities. [/QUOTE]
