(Gift illustration)

How it works

You transfer cash or securities to RIT.

RIT pays you, or up to two annuitants you name, a lifetime annuity. (Warning - rates will be dropping as of July 1st, 2008 )

The principal passes to RIT when the contract ends.

Benefits

• You receive an immediate income tax deduction for a portion of your gift.
• Your lifetime annuity is backed by a reserve and the full assets of RIT.
• Your annuity payments are treated as part ordinary income, part capital gains income (15%), and part tax-free income.
• You have the satisfaction of making a significant gift that benefits you now and RIT later.
