Make no mistake about 151a is scheduled to enter into force in January 2011 and annuity seller will be faced with an entirely new playing field. For those who are in the pension for over 30 years, as I have been, it is obvious that every time that a product has been developed by the insurance industry is successful, the SEC tries to end in respect of such profits generated by the product share.

Customers to youbecause you will be offered three times the interest rate, helped them avoid probate, saving them money on their income taxes. All this was made possible by repositioning your customers' hard earned money into pensions and life insurance, have a huge advantage over other investment products available.
