À propos de cet audio
In our third week with our couple in their 80s, we consider options to obtain the most LTC benefits from annuities.
If you already own annuities, check for a Chronic Illness rider or LTC rider. If there is one, read it carefully as different rules apply to access enhanced benefits for care. If you need help understanding your rider, ask me for guidance here
Some pay the LTC benefits tax-free and some don't.
Some require your need to be permanent, some don't.
Some will enhance benefits for both cognitive and physical needs, and some don't.
If you own an annuity (non-IRA) with a good amount of earnings, it can be repositioned to an annuity that can pay potentially three times the account value of the annuity, or more, tax-free when used for care. This eliminates all the taxable gains your current annuity has earned over the years.
If your annuity IS your LTC plan, there are wiser ways to use it than simply withdrawing the earnings and paying taxes on the gains.
