Very interesting. More choices are attractive. In complex situations with uncertainties ordinary people often make incorrect decisions. A few will make good decisions. Fidelity plays by statistics. Julius

had a long talk with fido about annuities a couple of years ago.....if you die you do not lose your money ,,,it goes to heirs now. At least that is the fido product. The product certainly has a bad reputation from many years of abuse....still can't really see the advantage unless a person cannot control spending habits. A good idea is to buy enough annuity to pay essential montly bills....take the rest and invest it yourself. As your expenses increase with inflation , take some of your profits from other investments and buy more annuity. personal.fidelity.com
