We all know that the longer you avoid paying taxes, the more money you will have. But have you ever calculated exactly how much more money tax-deferral provides?

Did you know that after postponing taxes for just six years, a tax-deferred annuity can produce 11% more income every year than a taxable account? After fifteen years, you will have 30% more income due to tax-deferral (refer to the table below).

The longer you defer taxes, the more money you will have—That’s the power of tax deferral!
