Triple Compounding Solutions!   One of the primary advantages of deferred annuities is the opportunity to accumulate a substantial sum of money by allowing your premium and interest to grow tax-deferred. Interest earned on your American Equity annuity is not currently taxable by the federal or state government until you choose to make a withdrawal. This is the key difference between an annuity and other taxable financial vehicles.     With that in mind, consider the many advantages of an annuity, including triple compounding! With annuities you earn interest on your principal, interest on your interest, and interest on what you would normally pay in taxes. You will not pay income taxes on annuity interest until you withdraw it from your annuity. You control when you pay income taxes!   Click here to see a demonstration of the power of tax-deferred savings.
