FAQ

Longevity annuities in the US are purchased as a person nears retirement age but payments are deferred to start in the future. For example, a 65-year-old at retirement may buy a longevity annuity with a commencement of payments at age 85, thus using the majority of the portfolio to provide withdrawals until age 85.

Depending upon employment status, the County provides the following retirement plans: Defined Benefit Retirement Plans (Plans A,B,C,D,E and G) – to learn more about these plans, call LACERA at 800-786-6464 or visit their website at .lacera.

The most basic rule of thumb is the income rule, which states that your insurance need would be equal to six or eight times your gross annual income. For example, a person earning a gross annual income of $60,000 should have between $360,000 (6 x $60,000) and $480,000 (8 x $60,000) in life insurance coverage.

No death benefits: While a 401(k) can provide retirement income, it doesn't replace the value of your lost income after your death, although you can leave the balance of your 401(k) to your loved ones if you were to pass away.

A 401(k) is a long-term savings plan funded by deductions from employee paychecks. Some employers match these contributions. A pension plan is primarily funded by the employer. Employees may be allowed or required to contribute.

Civilian employees must have twenty years of service with Los Angeles County with the last ten (10) years as a member of the Sheriff's Department, or the employee must be fifty (50) years of age and have ten (10) years of Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department service prior to retirement.

At the end of the day - your whole life insurance is almost certainly more expensive and less efficient than other savings vehicles. 401k and Roth will always be at least as good as a taxable brokerage account and usually better.

Calculate Your Years of Service Pension Percentage You receive 50% of your Final Average Salary at 20 years of service, plus 3% for each additional year of service; except in the 30th year you receive 4%. The maximum percentage payable is 90% of your Final Average Salary at 33 or more years of service.
