What I Have Learned
D. Being aware with the two types of annuities help you in different transactions
that you will encounter in the future. What are the advantages and
disadvantages of these annuities?
One of the most appealing features of an annuity might be the ability
to receive income payments for life. To do so, you invest money in an annuity
and instruct the insurer to pay you monthly, quarterly, or annually. No matter
how long you live, those payments should continue if you choose lifetime
payments. Those payments can potentially replace the income you earned
in your working years, and monthly payments may feel similar to monthly
wages in your working years. Annuities may provide a guaranteed return on
your investment. For example, fixed annuities have a stated interest rate, and
the insurance company pays you that amount annually. The amount may
change over time, or you may receive a set rate for several years.
What I Can Do
Your mother plans to join the employee’s cooperative. She wants to know how
much her money would earn in six months. The cooperative requires a monthly
contribution of Php1000.00 starting June 2020, with a compounded interest rate
of 3%. How much will your mother’s money be by December2020?
R = Php1000.00

Conclusion:
I therefore conclude that my mom should consider that one of the key principles of
investing is to never invest without a purpose. There are many reasons for that, but
the big one is that without a specific purpose in mind, you can’t really assess your
timeframe for investing and how much risk you’re willing to take on, both of which
are vital questions when it comes to investing. What’s her goal? Why is she doing
this? She should figure that out before she invests a dime.
