Retirement Income
Convert your clients’ retirement investment into reliable, guaranteed lifetime income streams with our single premium immediate annuity, Nationwide Advisory Income® or our variable annuity, Nationwide Advisory Retirement Income Annuity®. Help your clients be prepared to live the lifestyle they want in retirement.
Variable annuities are long-term, tax-deferred investments investors buy from an insurance company to help them save for retirement. They are called “variable” because their value fluctuates based on the performance of the underlying investment options chosen. Some variable annuities offer optional living and death benefits for an additional fee. There are some limitations that may not be right for all investors, including that withdrawals are subject to income tax and those taken before age 59½ may be subject to a 10% early withdrawal federal tax penalty. Keep in mind that all guarantees and protections are subject to the claims paying ability of Nationwide Life Insurance Company. We also need to add that all guarantees and protections are subject to the claims paying ability of Nationwide Life Insurance Company.
We have a solution to manage the many risks of retirement – from outliving retirement savings to bridging the gap between retirement and taking Social Security payments. Take control of retirement income.

Douglas and Robin
Douglas and Robin have been married for 39 years and have recently retired to spend time with their grandchildren. As part of their comprehensive financial plan, their advisor recommended they add Nationwide Advisory Income℠, a Single Premium Immediate Annuity, to their portfolio of investments upon retirement. Nationwide Advisory Income℠ provides Doug and Robin the peace of mind through guaranteed, fixed payments each quarter, helping ensure the lifestyle they have planned for their golden years. This guaranteed payment could be especially important when one of them passes away. By selecting the Joint and 100% Last Survivor payout option, the remaining spouse will continue receiving 100% of the quarterly payment until their own death.

Greg
Greg, age 61, is looking forward to retiring from his job as a distribution center manager within the next 4-7 years. Like most pre-retirees, he understands that short-term market volatility can have long-term implications when it’s time to begin taking retirement income. Meeting with his advisor, they reviewed his Social Security and pension plan.

With an annual 7% simple interest roll-up2, Greg is guaranteed an increase in his potential retirement income each year he remains invested in the annuity, regardless of market conditions.

Maximizing your Social Security income benefit by waiting until full retirement age increases your monthly income – potentially as much as 76%1. But what if you were planning to retire at 62 or even 65?

Jill
At 62 years old, Jill is ready to retire after years of service at a local accounting firm. Although she has been a diligent saver during her career, she is still apprehensive of spending her retirement too quickly. She is especially concerned about her monthly income and plans to wait until the age of 72 to begin receiving benefits to maximize her Social Security income. While delaying her Social Security benefits will provide her more monthly income at age 72 and beyond, she needs to manage her income closely for the next 10 years. To address her concern, her advisor recommends investing a portion of her savings in a fee-based Single Premium Immediate Annuity like Nationwide Advisory Income℠. She can select a Single Term-Certain payout option that will allow her to receive fixed monthly payments for the next 10 years. This makes Jill feel much more comfortable about meeting her monthly obligations all while enjoying the first decade of her retirement.
