A very good, balanced article about the longevity annuity--well worth the read. Consider that the annuity payout for a $50,000 longevity annuity purchased from MetLife by a 60 year old male is $56,106 per year. The payouts begin at age 85 and last for the lifetime of the contract holder. Tax considerations, estate planning and financial planning are discussed in the context of longevity annuities.

The U.S. Treasury Department is expected to annouce that TARP funds will be extended to certain life insurers that have bank holding or thrift status. The potential TARP funds are seen as most beneficial for those life insurers whose capital bases have suffered most during the financial crisis. Strengthened capital bases are likely a positive for consumers of life and annuity products, while industry shareholders and executives would suffer from dilution of their ownership and increased regulatory burden in areas such as executive compensation. Possible TARP fund recipients include Hartford Financial Services Group, Lincoln National, Genworth Financial, Prudential and MetLife, Principal Financial Group and the Phoenix Companies.
