Question
HI PAUL
I HAVE USED MORNINGSTAR TO HELP ME CHOOSE A MUTUAL FUND, BUT I CANNOT FIND ANOTHER SIMILAR SERVICE THAT RATES ANNUITIES?
DO YOU KNOW OF ANY ON THE INTERNET THAT ARE FREE?

DINO

Answer
Dino,
 Thank you for your question! Unfortunately I cannot be of much help due to my very limited experience with annuities. The only service I know of is provided by National Datamax (www.nationaldatamax.com)  I last saw this service a few years ago, and at the time there was a fee of about $25/month for their software that analyzed annuities. Perhaps their website is worth a quick look in case they have developed other online tools. They are owned by FCSI, also worth a check: www.fcsi.com
