Annuities/Traditional IRA/IRA Rollover/Roth IRA 

Annuity: This is a contract with an insurance company that you agree to deposit a specific amount of money with that insurance company. The insurance company agrees to pay a fixed rate of interest on your funds, as long as the contract exists. The interest you earn accumulates as tax deferred. Also available are variable annuities which pay a variable rate of return. Withdrawals are taxable and if you withdraw from the account prior to age 59 1/2 a tax penalty may apply and there are federal restrictions.*

Traditional IRA: This is a tax favored account that allows anyone under the ago of 70 1/2 who has earned income from employment to contribute up to $3,000/year, and is subject to certain income conditions. These contributions are tax deductible, though earnings are tax-deferred. Withdrawals are taxable and are required to begin at the age of 70 1/2. If you withdraw from the account prior to age 59 1/2 a tax penalty may apply and there are federal restrictions.*

IRA Rollover: This is a tax favored account which savings are transferred from an existing, qualified retirement plan (i.e. 401 (k) plan) to a Traditional IRA. Though contributions and withdrawals follow the guidelines as a Traditional IRA.*

Roth IRA: This is a tax favored account that allows anyone, regardless of age, with earned income from employment to contribute up to $3,000/year, and is subject to certain income conditions. Contributions are not tax deductible. Earnings are tax deferred. Withdrawals are tax-free under certain conditions, but if you withdraw from the account prior to age 59 1/2 a tax penalty may apply and there are federal restrictions.*
