Annuities stir strong opinions—but most of the confusion comes from how they’re explained and when they’re used. In this episode, Matt Eilers breaks down why nearly 60% of annuity owners don’t fully understand what they bought and how that misunderstanding can derail retirement plans. The conversation reframes annuities as tools—not good or bad by default—and explores where they fit (and where they don’t) alongside stocks and other investments. Matt also explains why education, second opinions, and matching tools to goals matter more than advice from headlines or the water cooler.
