By Brenne Meirowitz

Are you looking for high interest annuities? Annuities are considered by some investment consultants to be one of the best forms of financial protection that an individual can have.

Annuities usually have a death benefit clause, but they are actually quite different from insurance policies. You may also consider placing your investment into a trust.

Looking For High Interest Annuities?
July 22nd, 2009

Are you looking for high interest annuities? If so, you may be also looking for your money when it’s time to cash out! In times of market volatility, financial service companies are being forced to lower the strength of their guarantees.

This is due to increasing costs and risks of their own. This includes your local bank as well as newly restructured investment banks. According to Leslie Scism’s Wall Street Journal article dated April 6, 2009, “More than 70% of financial advisers in a recent survey said they were concerned about the risks insurers have taken on with guaranteed-minimum variable annuities — and nearly a third said they doubted the insurers themselves understood those risks.” Accordingly, sales of fixed interest annuities skyrocketed 74% in the early part of 2009.

So, where does that leave the small investor when it comes to choosing a retirement plan? Should you choose a variable high interest rate annuity or go for a more conservative, lower rate fixed interest annuity?  Deferred, High Interest Annuities often offer a high teaser rate, but then readjust yearly based on market conditions.

Buyer Of Structured Settlement
January 30th, 2010

A buyer of structured settlement is buying the future payments from your structured settlement, annuity, or annuity settlement. The buyer will pay you a cash value lump sum in lieu of your future payments.

Millions of Americans have some sort of structured settlement for which they are receiving regular payments. Many are from accident injuries, with the injured party opting for compensation through a structured settlement. This type of settlement provides a regular stream of payments, often over many years.

Other types of structured settlements are lottery or other prize winnings where the payout is in the form of an annuity that pays smaller monthly amounts.

For the buyer of structured settlements to buy your payments and pay you cash, you would be selling all the future payments from your structured settlement. The buyer will then pay you cash in a lump sum for those payments. You get the cash you wanted, in a lump sum, while the buyer takes over collecting the payments.

While this type of smaller, regular payments works well for some, many people find that they need larger sums of cash in the near term to pay for things such as debt reduction, medical expenses, college tuition for a family member, a down payment for the purchase of a home, or perhaps to start a business or even take a vacation.

When considering a company that buys structured settlements and annuity payments, you should consider some important factors. The first thing is to discover what types of programs are offered. Most typical are the programs that offer lump sums of cash in exchange for a continual payment distribution. Before committing to this, you should get in writing what percentage the structured settlement buyer will take from the total amount of the payment distribution. No two annuities are the same, and an underwriting department can customize each transaction for the client. Most of the time, the distribution will be exchanged for 50% of the total amount or less.

Keep in mind that these sorts of transactions can take place anywhere from 4-8 weeks once the process has begun. Of course, since each settlement is different, completion times can vary.

Since you are sometimes dealing in rather large sums, a reputable buyer settlement annuity payments should encourage you to seek the advice of a lawyer before signing over any distributions. An attorney should always review any agreement before signing.

A reputable buyer should also have been in business for while with certifiable successful transactions in the past. At least one referral should be found outside of the potential program being considered as to verify, on a personal level, the validity of the organizations claim.

Most programs will be able to accommodate the clients funding needs. The lump sum disbursement can be in the form of a check made out to you, or wired directly into the client’s bank account.

If other arrangements are needed, or the lump sum is to be distributed to multiple places and accounts, a reputable program will be able to accommodate even the most unique circumstances. There is always a solution to be found to a problem when dealing with an experienced buyer of structured annuity settlement organization. The best organizations are those with high ratings from top notch financial rating firm.

The buyer of structured settlement is making a good return from their investment. As such, you shouldn’t be afraid to ask questions, “shop around”, and insist that any reasonable needs are met.

If you feel you are ready, I do not think 1/2 of the amount of medical costs is fair. You went through torture due to a drivers negligence. I would ask for at least 2X the cost of all the out of pocket costs you had, then work from there. I’ve been through pain due to negligence. It’s horrible and you never get the time back, nor are you ever assured there won’t be future problems. I would not hesitate to start negotiating at a much higher rate.~~

The two usual ways to calculate pain and suffering are either using the amount of the medical bills as a base or so much per unit of time. Neither one is a perfect system but they help come up with a number. It sounds like you put up with the pain for 3 months–what’s that worth to you per month? $500 a month? $1000 per month?

The classic formula is 3 times the medical bills, so that the claimant, the lawyer and the doctor each get the same amount. Keep in mind that you don’t have a lawyer to pay.

Decide on a figure and ask for something that a bit more than that. Don’t lower your initial demand until they make a counteroffer. Listen to what they say, have some points to raise about how much this affected your life, etc, and be prepared to compromise. If you feel like you’re losing the argument, ask for time to think about it and call them back.

(BTW, don’t forget to ask for the amount of the wages you lost on those 4 shifts you missed–they’re part of your claim.)
