Summary
Meet the man who pioneered one of the biggest developments in the retirement planning industry. Curtis Cloke, a financial professional of 30 years and the man who's credited with pioneering the Deferred Income Annuity, or DIA as it's called. In this interview, Curtis shares the story of how he developed the game changing retirement tool and gives an example of the "Buy Income, Chase Alpha" strategy which allowed him to generate $82,000 a year of Guaranteed Income, and invest more aggressively with the remaining savings he has, instead of tying it up in the market.
