re: Fixed index annuities

Went to a "free" meal against my better judgement put on by the rep. Initial pitch/whiteboard info was dead on with my research. Follow uo meeting ended up as a whiteboard rehash of the dinner with no specifics on the actual product I would be buying. When I started asking question, reps demeanor changed and it was obvious that if I wasn't buying they werent giving me any more info. FIA product only even though they claimed to have alternatives, they wouldn't discuss them. The overall feel was they pitch and you buy, no questions no input. Like I said, I knew better going in and it turned out exactly as I expected. Granted, I'm a hard sell and have a lot of questions.
