Ohio Teachers Retirement & Pension
Pension Analysis
Your pension is a fund that is paid into during your working years and can be accessed to provide monthly income after you’ve retired. A pension can be complicated and hard to understand. Pension analysis with Appreciation Financial will help you answer these questions:
- When should you start your pension?
- Should you take your pension as an annuity or a lump sum?
- In a buyout situation, should you take it or wait for a better deal?
- What type of survivor option should you choose?
403(b) Retirement Plans
Educators have a unique set of retirement income sources. A 403(b) is like a 401(k), but for public school employees and tax-exempt organizations. A 403(b) is the most common defined-contribution plan for teachers and public school employees. You fund the 403(b) by deducting money from your paycheck and putting it into the investments you choose. Some public schools will match 403(b) contributions.
