Suppose you have reached retirement. You have saved a good
mount of money, say EUR 500,000.
You are now to make a comparison between two approaches to
using your wealth to see you through retirement:

1. Establish what yearly pension a life insurance company is prepared to pay you for the rest of your life.
2. You manage your wealth yourself. Set an amount you want to withdraw each year, and estimate what percent you can earn on the outstanding balance.

Welcome to the site, I moved your thread from the Health forum to the Money forum.

Since your profile says California and your question is in Euros, does this mean you need to take account of exchange rates?

I can assume any currency, need not to worry about the FOREX for now.
Thx

The simplest answer is to go to Immediate Annuities - Instant Annuity Quote Calculator. and plug in your numbers.

That will at least get you in an approximate range of what to expect.

I agree with braumeister. If you've got a Vanguard account, you can try this:

Hey Mahag, I got the same question as an assignment. I was wondering if you could tell me how you structured it?

Velocity, this thread is more than a year old and Mahag hasn't been back since posting the question, so it looks like you're on your own for the assignment. You'll learn more that way
