I guess you have some sort of fetish for this phrase but on a quick
search it doesn't seem to be catching on with anyone else at vpFREE...
and the linguistic tic aside, while I admit to only knowing the
general idea of how an annuity works, it's not clear to me this is
such the holy grail, i.e.
- I doubt very many people would want to "get out of gambling forever"
(whether for enjoyment or intellectual challenge reasons)
- for those that did, whether an annuity is a gain over parking it in
some safe conservative investment even if they were that risk averse,
and
- is $1MM really enough (see Dec 2014 post below)? we're talking
about a never-have-to-work-again annuity, right? maybe for the right
set of age and life circumstances?
I mean having a non-linear utility curve is fine and all but it seems
weird to be willing to take longshots with multiple-lifetime cycles
when your bankroll is small and then take like no risk whatsoever with
a gigantic bankroll.
