In considering whether to increase your premium, you should consider all your retirement product options and their associated fees and expenses, and independently determine which option is best for your situation. The cumulative effect of fees and expenses can substantially reduce the growth of retirement savings.
Horace Mann Life Insurance Company underwrites Horace Mann annuity products. While you can receive the benefits of tax deferral in any product used in a tax-qualified plan, an annuity offers additional benefits, including a death benefit and the opportunity to choose lifetime income options. In order to offer these benefits, there may be additional fees included in the annuity. There are no additional tax benefits in an annuity when used in a qualified plan or IRA. For more information on Horace Mann product fees and expenses, contact your Horace Mann representative or go to horacemann.com.
Withdrawals from a 403(b) or 457(b) annuity are restricted by the Internal Revenue Code and may be further restricted by your employer’s plan. Generally, you may make a withdrawal from a 403(b) annuity only upon reaching age 59½, severance from employment, disability or certain hardships (if allowed by the plan). Generally, you may make a withdrawal from a 457(b) annuity only upon reaching age 59½, severance from employment, or an unforeseeable emergency (if allowed by the plan). If you take money out before age 59½ you could be subject to a federal penalty tax of 10% (except for 457(b) contracts) in addition to income taxes.
Annuities should be considered long-term investments. The factors which affect your decision to contribute to a traditional or Roth IRA are complicated and can change each year.
The guarantees mentioned are provided by Horace Mann Life Insurance Company and are based on the financial stability of the company.
Contributions to traditional and Roth IRAs are aggregated for purposes of annual limits. If you take money out before age 59½, you could be subject to a penalty tax of 10% in addition to income taxes. This is not intended to be tax advice. You should consult with a tax adviser regarding any tax-favored products and your specific situation.
