Has anyone opted for a lump sum pension, reinvested it, and started receiving an annuity? What are the pros and cons of going this route?
thank you

Many pensions do not have that feature

So I can tell you this this is the wrong time to take a lump sum payment because the interest rates are so high right now it will reduce your lump sum
 
He should save his money and just listen to us....what can go wrong... :rolleyes:
I'm not picking on him but I'm very surprised at how cool those people are when it comes to retirement

Just like why tell the urine guys are working I probably have to work a little bit longer than the plan on unless you save a lot more because the penalties are steep

If the rates were lower and your plan offered a lump sum would you take it?

@Wally need a little translation help
And now a Wallation:
This may come across as crass, and my intentions are not to single anyone person out, however, I'm taken back by the cavalier attitude the younger generation seems to take in terms of their eventual retirement.

They seem to be unaware of this simple fact, one must prepare now for the future, saving much more than most, if you wish to retire early. The cost of early retirement is more than most prepare for due the harsh penalties associated.
