About this listen

 This podcast is made by Ran Chen, who holds an EA license, Insurance and Securities licenses (Series 6, 63, 65), and the CFP® designation. He is passionate about opening access to high-quality exam preparation resources and helping learners prepare more effectively for professional certification exams. In this episode you will learn: - The distinction between the accumulation and annuitization phases and how they are tested. - The different risk profiles of fixed, variable, and indexed annuities and why only variable annuities are securities. - The LIFO (Last-In, First-Out) tax treatment for non-qualified annuity withdrawals, a common exam trap. - The dual threat of surrender charges from the insurance company and the 10% IRS penalty for withdrawals before age 59.5. - How tax-deferred growth is a key benefit but that all earnings are eventually taxed as ordinary income.
