Most of you know I'm not savvy on finances, so i'm looking for any thoughts on jeanies' annuity. It was taken out in 1984 in the amount of $8000. It started out for the first four years with interest rates of about 7+%, and a continuing rate of 4%. The total value is now about $62K, with a surrender value of about 53+K. The 10 year payout is about $750/mo. The annuity is transferrable on death for the total payout value.
That's about all I know. It looks like she'll be able to take it out monthly and based on our taxable income, will allow us to continue without paying federal or state taxes.
Can you think of anything we need to check on, or be aware of when requesting the payout?
Yeah... I know... what's stupid doing here on a financial site. Anyway, your thoughts?
