Did You Know?
An annuity is a pension benefit that is paid out in a specific amount over a set period of time. Annuities typically last for the lifetime of the participant, or the lives of both the participant and his or her spouse, depending on the type of annuity selected. Joint-and-Survivor and Single-Life are types of annuities.
