A steady stream of income.
Annuities* have features that can help ensure you’ll have the money you need when you retire.
Annuities offer us a way to invest while having additional layers of protection. Since many Americans are concerned with outliving their retirement funds, monthly income planning is one of the most important steps in creating the retirement lifestyle you want and deserve. Annuities are created to help with the tax deferred growth and distribution of your wealth. Different investment options such as fixed-rate, indexed, and variable are available.
Annuities can offer several different levels that provide protection during market downturns, and may, for an additional cost, include growth, principal protection, or a stream of income for life. Annuities also have additional features that may provide guarantees, minimum rate of return, principle protection, income for life, and death benefits.
Namely, preferred stock often possess higher dividend payments, and a higher claim to assets in the event of liquidation.

All guarantees are based on the financial strength and claims-paying ability of the issuing insurance company (not Siebert).
Before investing, consider the investment objectives, risks, charges and expenses of the annuity and its investment options. Annuities are not suitable for every investor. Request and read all offering materials including a prospectus or summary prospectus prior to investing to be sure it meets your investment objectives and risk tolerance. Annuities are long term investments and may lose value. To determine if an annuity is right for you, consult with a professional insurance agent and complete a suitability review.
