Hans Goldstein

A FAMILY LEGACY IN FINANCIAL SERVICES

Hans Goldstein's career in financial services is built on real-world experience and genuine client relationships. For years, he has worked alongside his in-laws in the life insurance industry, selling life insurance to hundreds of clients and witnessing firsthand the financial pain points that families face when retirement planning goes wrong.

Through these years of experience, Hans has seen the devastating consequences of poor timing decisions: families blindsided by Medicare premium increases they didn't anticipate, retirees who claimed Social Security too early and left hundreds of thousands of dollars on the table, and individuals whose retirement plans collapsed because they didn't understand how Social Security, annuities, and life insurance work together.

This deep experience in life insurance, combined with specialized expertise in Social Security optimization and fixed index annuities, allows Hans to see the complete financial picture.

SAFE MONEY SOLUTIONS

FIXED INDEX ANNUITIES

Market Upside with Principal Protection | NPN: 21672117

WHAT IS A FIXED INDEX ANNUITY?

A Fixed Index Annuity (FIA) is an insurance contract that combines the safety of a fixed annuity with the growth potential of a stock market index. Your principal is protected, but your returns are linked to the performance of a market index like the S&P 500.

Unlike investing directly in the market, you don't own the index. Instead, the insurance company credits your account based on the index's performance, with built-in protections against losses.

βœ“ 100% Principal Protection

Your initial investment is protected from market loss (subject to contract terms).

βœ“ Market Participation

Earn returns based on index performance (caps/participation apply).

βœ“ Guaranteed Income

Optional riders may provide lifetime income guarantees.

Financial planning

KEY FEATURES

Participation Rate

Determines what percentage of index gains you receive (varies by product and market conditions).

Cap Rate

The maximum return you can earn in a crediting period, even if the index rises more.

Floor Rate

The minimum credited rate is often 0% for a periodβ€”no market loss is applied to your account value.

Crediting Period

The timeframe over which returns are calculated and credited (often annual).
