Show Notes:

Most financial advice focuses on accumulating wealth. Jeremiah Konger built his company around the harder problem: what happens when the paycheck stops.

Jeremiah is the founder of Annuity Association, an independent annuity advisory firm with relationships across more than 80 carriers — a deliberate contrast to an industry where most advisors represent only two or three companies. His path there ran through mowing lawns as a kid in Tampa, a $34,000 home theater sale at Circuit City that sparked his entrepreneurial ambition, and building and selling 24 wireless retail stores across two exits.

In this episode, Henry and Jeremiah cover:

• What annuities actually are, and when they function as an investment versus a risk mitigation tool
• Why decumulation is a harder equation than accumulation — and the Mount Everest analogy that explains it
• How longevity acts as a risk multiplier across volatility, taxes, healthcare, and inflation
• Why covering essential expenses with guaranteed income changes investor behavior in down markets
• The moment Jeremiah was told to "just read the brochure" to a client — and how it led him to buy annuityassociation.com for $14 that same night
• The firm's Inc. 5000 ranking at #294, over $100 million in annuity production in five years, and the launch of NestEasy Annuities, a direct-to-consumer buying platform for DIY investors
