Thinks s/he gets paid by the post
The best answer so far :
I would back away fast.
I would back away fast.
BINGO!I would back away fast. He fired you, without even telling you that you were being fired.
AMF, FIL!
I was able to talk to my FIL briefly this evening and this is what he said.
He bought a variable annuity probably inside an IRA account since that is what he liquidated.
He was guaranteed a 6% return for the 1st 3 years. His GF showed him her statements and she said she was doing pretty good.
I asked him for the paperwork and he said he doesn't have it yet.
He has no idea what he got into other than he is suppose to get 6% interest and it's a variable annuity.
I would image he'll bring some papers over at Thanksgiving. I don't really plan on discussing it with him any further. I don't want to put down the decision in front of his GF. None of my business anymore.

It really is time to just express your opinion that you don't agree with the move, and then back off. It's a no-win situation for you. If he ever brings it up, just say you did what you could, but can not help him with the details any longer.I was able to talk to my FIL briefly this evening and this is what he said.

He could have married his GF and left everything to her?This may not have been the best move the OP's FIL ever made, but there is a seemingly infinite number of worse things that could have happened.
