I guess I'm in shock! (my introduction)

While you are waiting for your books, you should look at the articles in Forbes by Mel Lindauer about all the different types of annuities. He will support the posts you are getting about their "badness" with some background info.

You can find the articles on line starting here: Annuities: Good, Bad Or Ugly? - Forbes

You may also want to subscribe to the bogleheads blog. That is a group of people who believe in a do it yourself approach to investing and mostly use Vanguard funds to do it. The name comes from Jack Bogle who founded Vanguard. Their website can be found here: Bogleheads • Index page

Good luck. You worked hard to save the money you have. Its much less effort to keep it but it does take a little.
