TheStreet.com recently released their analysis of the top life insurance companies in the U.S. based upon financial strength and reserves. This list is provided below.
You will not find any of the companies that sell "gimmick" annuity products on the above list.

This poses a "ticking time bomb" for the heirs of many current annuity holders.TheStreet.com Ratings has been recognized as the most conservative grader of life insurance financial strength by a leading consumer publication and was singled out as the only ratings agency that doesn't accept payments from any of the companies it tracks.
There is no such thing as a free lunch. Be wary of investment/annuity pitchmen.
