Annuities are making a comeback and today’s retirees are taking a second look at a once-controversial strategy. In this episode, Sean Mason explains how rising interest rates, shifting retirement priorities, and evolving product designs are changing the role annuities can play in a modern income plan. He breaks down why guaranteed income is top of mind for many investors, how different types of annuities behave, and where they might fit into a broader strategy. From replacing a missing pension to supporting Roth conversions, this conversation highlights the growing importance of income-focused planning in today’s economic climate.
