Don't Be Fooled!

  to capture gains and avoid losses, has proven reliable.

• Annuities are all alike.

Common Investor Mistakes

• Inadequate protection from a sudden and severe market downturn.
• Believing asset allocation and/or diversification will protect monies from loss.

Time is Money - Why Lose Either One?

It's no secret that playing the market has its risks, but losing money is only half the story. Have you ever thought about how long it can take to make up these losses?

If you lost this much in the market:	It could take this many years to rebuild your nest egg:
	@ a 3% return	@ a 6% return	@ a 8% return
10%	3.6 years	1.8 years	1.3 years
20%	7.5	3.7	2.9
30%	12	6	4.6
40%	17	8.6	6.6
50%	23.2	11.6	9

As you can see, a market loss can severely sidetrack your financial goals. Whether you're two years or twenty-two years behind schedule, that is time you will never get back.
