Seniors on fixed incomes face a unique problem. Where do they invest their savings to get maximum return on investment with limited risk?

Stocks and Mutual Funds while offering a potential for a higher yield have a risk factor that most seniors find unacceptable.

If you started the year with an annuity value of $10,000 your annuity would still be worth $10,000. It doesn't matter if your score card has a Negative 1%, 10% or 99% you will not loose one cent of your $10,000 starting value.
