Financial Well-Being Seminar: Lifetime Income and TIAA
Please join us on October 17 as Benny Goodman, Vice President and Senior Actuary at TIAA, provides an overview of annuities and guaranteed lifetime income. Benny will discuss life expectancy and illustrate the difference between selecting a lifetime income option from an annuity versus taking systematic withdrawals. You’ll learn more about the features of the TIAA Traditional Annuity—and how selecting lifetime income from TIAA Traditional can help cover basic living expenses without the risk of outliving your income. You do not have to be a TIAA member to participate.
