A guaranteed rate of return?

Such as what?

Current interest returns are as small as 0.01%. I happen to have an older annuity that is currently returning 4.75% — which is massive in the current low interest period. About 15 years ago, 8% was considered a low-moderate saving rate.

This bond sounds like more feel-good-ism that sounds good and looks good on paper, but in reality may not be.

This is all about getting their hands on the 401Ks, nothing more, nothing less.
