About this listen
In this episode, Bryan Anderson exposes the truth about volatility controlled indexes in fixed index annuities. If you own an index annuity or are considering buying one, this is essential listening.
Hundreds of clients have come to Bryan confused about why their annuities aren't earning what was promised. The culprit? Volatility controlled indexes that are often misrepresented with outlandish projections of 10-12% returns, when the reality is closer to 3-4%.
Bryan breaks down how these indexes actually work, why they consistently underperform expectations, and what you need to know before signing on the dotted line. He explains the mechanics behind these products, the role of fees and caps, and how to set realistic expectations.
Key Topics:
• How volatility controlled indexes really work
• Why projected returns rarely match reality
• The difference between income value and cash value growth
• Setting conservative, realistic expectations
• Better alternatives for growth and income
Whether you're evaluating an annuity proposal or already own one and want to understand your contract better, this episode provides the straight talk you need to make informed decisions.
