Solutions for Individuals
Plan for a secure future with our individual financial solutions: retirement income, annuities, IRAs, college funding, long-term care, and life insurance planning.
Retirement
In today’s fast-paced marketplace, our National Retirement Group team is available to help you and your family reach your financial goals. The good news is we’re living longer, healthier lives. That means we need to have enough money to last over our lifetime. Our professionals work with you to create a retirement strategy that fits your needs.
We’ll work with you to develop the retirement income strategy that’s best for you, whether that involves taking a lump sum, setting up an annuity for guaranteed income, making partial withdrawals, or executing a tax-smart rollover into an IRA. The rules are complex, and professional guidance is strongly advised before taking major withdrawals from your retirement plan.
Retirement Annuities
An annuity is a contract between you and an insurance company designed to provide retirement income. You make a payment or series of payments, and in return, the insurer agrees to make periodic payments to you now or in the future.
We offer fixed, indexed, and variable annuities. A Fixed Indexed Annuity (FIA) can provide a guaranteed minimum return while offering growth potential based on a market index, like the S&P 500. Your principal and earned interest are protected from market loss. These products often include optional riders, like a Guaranteed Lifetime Income Rider (GLIR), which can provide a predictable “paycheck for life” you cannot outlive.
403(b) & 457 Plan Options
A 403(b) (for public school and non-profit employees) and a 457 (for government employees) are powerful retirement savings plans with high contribution limits. Contributions are made pre-tax, reducing your current taxable income.
A 403(b) plan allows you to save for retirement directly from your paycheck before taxes are taken out. This reduces your current tax bill and allows your savings to grow tax-deferred. Many educators use this to supplement their pension.
A 457 plan is a deferred compensation plan for government employees. You can contribute pre-tax dollars, and the contribution limits are separate from a 403(b). This means you can potentially save more each year if you have access to both plans.
Roth Options:
Both 403(b) and 457 plans may offer a Roth option. With a Roth, you contribute after-tax money. While you don’t get a tax break now, your qualified withdrawals in retirement are completely tax-free
Health Insurance & Medicare
Navigating health insurance before and after Medicare eligibility is crucial. Before age 65, you may be able to continue your employer’s plan upon retirement. At age 65, you become eligible for Medicare.
You have two main paths: Traditional Medicare (Parts A & B), often paired with a Supplement (Medigap) Plan and a Part D drug plan, or Medicare Advantage (Part C), which bundles Parts A, B, and often D into one plan, sometimes including vision and dental. Our advisors can help you compare costs, coverage, and provider networks to find the best option for your healthcare needs and budget
Life Insurance Planning
We help you establish a plan to protect your family’s financial future. We compare quotes from multiple carriers to maximize your coverage and minimize premiums.
We offer Term Life insurance for affordable, temporary coverage. We also offer permanent solutions like Whole Life, which provides lifelong coverage with guaranteed cash value, and Indexed Universal Life (IUL), which offers flexible premiums and cash value growth potential linked to a market index. Many of our policies also include “Living Benefits,” which can allow you to access the death benefit early if diagnosed with a chronic, critical, or terminal illness.

Long-Term Care Solutions
Planning for potential long-term care needs is essential to protect your assets and maintain choice. We offer innovative alternatives to traditional long-term care insurance.
Discover life insurance policies with riders that allow you to use the death benefit to pay for long-term care services if needed. We also offer annuity-based solutions that can provide a pool of money for care, with tax-free benefits. If care is never needed, both options allow your assets to pass to your beneficiaries, making them efficient legacy planning tools as well.
