|---|---|---|---|
| IRA | A personal retirement account | Traditional: taxed when you withdraw. Roth: taxed now, tax free later | Saving on your own or after leaving a job |
| 401(k) Rollover | Moving an old employer plan into an account you control | None, when done as a direct rollover | Changing jobs or retiring |
| Annuity | A contract with an insurance company | Growth is tax-deferred | Protection from losses and lifetime income |

The question we hear most
"What should I do with my old 401(k)?" The answer depends on your age, your old plan's fees, and how much market risk you're comfortable with. Our free guide lays out all four options.
If you're close to retirement, it's worth asking how a market drop right before you retire would affect your plans. Fixed and fixed indexed annuities are built to take that risk off the table.
