An Individual Retirement Account (IRA) in the United States is a form of individual retirement scheme represented by many financial institutions providing tax relief for retirement savings. The term IRA used to describe both individual retirement accounts and the broader category of individual retirement arrangements, including an individual retirement account; a trust or custodian account created exclusively for taxpayers or their beneficiaries; and an individual retirement annuity, through which taxpayers acquire an annuity or endowment agreement from a life insurance company.

Most people in the decline of years live separately from their children. They can take advantages of the situation, for example, by renting out part of a house or a room, or they can also sell a large house and buy a small apartment.
Life insurance
Annuity contracts in the United States are defined by the US Internal Revenue Code and regulated by individual states. Variable annuities have features of both life insurance and investment products. In the United States only life insurance companies can register annuity insurance, although private annuity contracts can be made between donors to nonprofit organizations to reduce taxes. Insurance companies are regulated by states, so contracts or options that may be available in some states may not be available in others.
