Longer life expectancies are the symbol of a prosperous society, but this progress also means that some retirees will need to plan conservatively and cut back substantially on their living standards or risk living so long that they exhaust their resources. This book examines the role that life annuities can play in helping people protect themselves against such outcomes.A life annuity is an insurance product that pays out a periodic amount for as long as the annuitant is alive, in exchange for a premium. The book begins with a history of life annuity markets during the twentieth century in the United States and elsewhere. It then explores recent trends in annuity pricing and money's worth, as well as the economic value generated for purchasers of these products. The book explains the potential importance of inflation-protected annuities and stock-market-linked variable annuities in providing more complete retirement security. The concluding chapters examine life annuities in various institutional settings and the tax treatment of annuity products. 001385906 588__ $$aOCLC-licensed vendor bibliographic record. 001385906 650_0 $$aAnnuities. 001385906 650_0 $$aRetirement income. 001385906 650_0 $$aAnnuities$$zUnited States. 001385906 650_0 $$aRetirement income$$zUnited States. 001385906 653__ $$aECONOMICS/Finance 001385906 653__ $$aECONOMICS/Public Economics 001385906 655_0 $$aElectronic books 001385906 7001_ $$aBrown, Jeffrey R.$$q(Jeffrey Robert),$$d1968- 001385906 852__ $$bebk 001385906 85640 $$3MIT Press$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https://doi.org/10.7551/mitpress/6007.001.0001?locatt=mode:legacy$$zOnline Access through The MIT Press Direct 001385906 85642 $$3OCLC metadata license agreement$$uhttp://www.oclc.org/content/dam/oclc/forms/terms/vbrl-201703.pdf 001385906 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:1385906$$pGLOBAL_SET 001385906 980__ $$aBIB 001385906 980__ $$aEBOOK 001385906 982__ $$aEbook 001385906 983__ $$aOnline
