"My members work hard to save. I help make sure those savings are safe and available when needed. I want them to be able to maintain the kind of lifestyle they want. When it came time for Gwen to start taking retirement distributions, we talked about the options available – from immediate annuities to securities products. She liked the guaranteed, steady income an immediate annuity could provide. We also made sure she had other investments for emergencies."
