55 already and all too single – no wives, no dependents and nary a friend to turn to. Hoping to retire to something that I like (much, much lower-paying, alas) in a couple of years. My question is this: I’ll soon have the opportunity to add about $100,000 at a 5% rate of interest to a deferred annuity. This amount would be untouchable for seven years. I’ll have some other savings and income, so will not be needing the money during this time. But would I, in these difficult times, do better in a safely managed “diversified stock income plan”?
Guess I should mention, if it’s not apparent from the above, that I’m a bit of a dummy (and scaredy cat) when it comes to stocks. Thank you very much for your opinions.
