Annuity Case with Special Circumstances

Well I assume he is touting an EIA with an attached income rider. A lot of agents are being seduced by these as substitutes for SPIA's. I do a lot of income planning using annuities and SPIA's play a vital role in that, true, not a lot of commish,but they are the right product for the customer in this conversation.
 
What are you talking about? If Carter wants us to use our secret decoder rings, then he needs to let us know. As far as an EIA/FIA being "the right product" yes we would need reasons.

first of all, let's say it's $45k to invest. The client wants $600 per month. If my math is correct (and it is), that would be $7200/year. Most EIAs require a 12-month hold on the funds before a 10% maximum annual withdrawal is allowed. So what am I missing?
 
SPIA"S are the right product, is what i s was trying to say,late in the day not typing clearly I suppose
 
Yep gotcha I know how it feels but would still be interested in learning about Carter's Super Secret Program.

Get the shoe phones ready!

Some FIA's have the income rider which you can take a guaranteed percentage of income per year depending on their age when they start. It doesn't matter if you spend all the account value you still get that set percentage. Usually, you have to wait 1 year to take advantage of this rider. It is not a good fit for this situation though. The percentage is usually between 6-7%.
