Considering a Deferred Annuity? Wealth Builder is a Better Solution.

When investing in a life insurance plan, there are several types of deferred annuities to consider. A deferred annuity is a long-term investment in which you invest a sum of money now and receive payments after the initial sum has accrued interest over a period of time, typically years in the future. The type of deferred annuity you purchase—fixed, variable, indexed—will determine how the rate of return is computed. 

While there are many benefits of tax-deferred annuities, once the policy is annuitized and the accumulation period ends, earnings in the deferred annuity become subject to taxation. This applies to both individual annuities and joint and survivor annuities. 

One significant benefit of AAFMAA Wealth Builder Life Insurance is that all policies are Modified Endowment Contracts (MEC). A Modified Endowment Contract is a tax qualification of a life insurance policy where premiums are paid into a life insurance policy more quickly than normal, usually less than seven years. Since MECs grow tax-deferred and have a tax-free death benefit, they are seen as a beneficial alternative to traditional deferred annuities.
