I prefer fixed term annuities as you can get another bite of the cherry at the end of the fixed term. This means at this point you may qualify for enhanced rates.

The nice thing about a lifetime annuity is that if you live longer (which is hopefully the case for all of us) then you keep getting paid monthly payments even if it extends beyond the amount of principal you paid in to the annuity in the first place.
