Absolutely. HOWEVER, it depends on the type of annuity and the decisions you make. Annuities are great, but too complex for one simple answer. "can" you lose money? Yes. Will you? Depends on what you get and what you decide to do with it. "can" annuity insure you don't lose money? Depends on what you get and what you decide to do with it. A tv personality who says annuities are always bad and a sales hype that says annuities are always good are both wrong.

What is value of payment on an life insurance annuity if owner dies before any payments?

Great product, an annuity. My friend had $8,000 in his one day and the annuity paid 100% overnight. Excitedly, he told me the next morning that he had $16,000 then. Happy guy. However, an annuity kind of works like a savings account at the bank. No money in it? No money paid out. $10 in it? $10 paid out. $100,000 in? $100,000 paid out. Disclaimer: an annuity is not a savings account. I just used that term to show you how it works.
