Once you’ve estimated the costs of healthcare in retirement, you’ll need a strategy to cover your costs.

INVESTMENT NEEDED TO GENERATE AN ANNUAL INCOME OF $5,500 AT AGE 65

STEP 2: CREATE AN INCOME STRATEGY WITH PRUDENTIAL DEFINED INCOMEThe next step is to create an income strategy to help you cover these costs. Consider putting a portion of your assets in the Prudential Defined Income Variable Annuity, a long-term retirement investment, designed to help you meet this challenge.

Prudential Defined Income can provide:

• The income you desire maybe be possible with a smaller investment as depicted below

• Tax-deferred growth of retirement income until your first Lifetime Withdrawal

• Income that lasts one lifetime (or two, if electing the spousal option)

Create guaranteed lifetime income with a smaller investment

Let’s say your goal is to generate an annual income of $5,500 to help pay for healthcare and other expenses in retirement. How much would you have to invest to meet that income goal? The chart below shows what you would need to invest in Defined Income at three different ages.

These hypothetical examples assume income percentages of 5.75%, 5.25%, 4.60%, and an income growth rate of 5.5%, and are for illustrative purposes only. They do not reflect a specific annuity, an actual account value or the performance of any investment. Your rate is subject to change. Please refer to the applicable monthly rate sheet supplement for current rates.It is important to note that the Guaranteed Income Amount (GIA) is separate from the account value and that the account value does not impact the GIA. The account value is not guaranteed, can fluctuate and may lose value.All guarantees, including the benefit payment obligations arising under the annuity contract guarantees, rider guarantees, benefits, or annuity payout rates are backed by the claims-paying ability of Pruco Life Insurance Company and Pruco Life Insurance Company of New Jersey. Those payments and the responsibility to make them are not the obligations of the third party broker/dealer from which this annuity is purchased, or any of its affiliates. All guarantees, including benefits, do not apply to the underlying investment options.

4% systematic withdrawal from investment

$138,000 x 4%

= $5,500/year income

(not guaranteed for life)

Prudential Defined Income

$96,000 = $5,500/year

income(guaranteed for life)

Prudential Defined Income

$80,000 = $5,500/year

income at age 65(guaranteed for life)

Prudential Defined Income

$70,000 = $5,500/year

income at age 65(guaranteed for life)

age 65 age 65 age 60 age 55

By planning ahead you’ll benefit from guaranteed income growth. So, if you are age 60 and plan on taking income at 65, you would need 42% less capital. And if you are age 55, you would need 49% less capital!

Defined Income requires 30% less capital vs. a systematic withdrawal from an investment, to produce the same income at age 65.

Investors should consider the features of the contract and the underlying portfolios’ investment objectives, policies, management, risks, charges and expenses carefully before investing. This and other important information is contained in the prospectus, which can be obtained from your financial professional. Please read the prospectus carefully before investing.Variable annuities are issued by Pruco Life Insurance Company (in New York, by Pruco Life Insurance Company of New Jersey), Newark, NJ (main office) and distributed by Prudential Annuities Distributors, Inc., Shelton, CT. All are Prudential Financial companies and each is solely responsible for its own financial condition and contractual obligations. Prudential Annuities is a business of Prudential Financial, Inc.Annuity contracts contain exclusions, limitations, reductions of benefits, and terms for keeping them in force. Your licensed financial professional can provide you with complete details.A variable annuity is a long-term investment designed for retirement purposes. Investment returns and the principal value of an investment will fluctuate so that an investor’s units, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than the original investment. Withdrawals or surrenders may be subject to contingent deferred sales charges. Withdrawals and distributions of taxable amounts are subject to ordinary income tax and, if made prior to age 59½, may be subject to an additional 10% federal income tax penalty, sometimes referred to as an additional income tax. Withdrawals, other than from IRAs or employer retirement plans, are deemed to be gains out first for tax purposes. Withdrawals reduce the account value and the living and death benefits.

Withdrawals in excess of the Guaranteed Income Amount impact the value of your benefit and can also affect the certainty of your income. An excess withdrawal occurs when your cumulative Lifetime Withdrawals exceed your Guaranteed Income Amount in any annuity year. If an excess withdrawal is taken, only the portion of the Lifetime Withdrawal that exceeds the remaining Guaranteed Income Amount will proportionally and permanently reduce your Guaranteed Income Amount for future years. If an excess withdrawal reduces the account value to zero, no further amount would be payable and the contract terminates.

The benefit is part of your annuity and you may not cancel the benefit. However, upon specified events, the benefit may be terminated. Please see the prospectus for more details.

Prudential Annuities and its distributors and representatives do not provide tax, accounting, or legal advice. Please consult your own attorney or accountant.

THE IMPACT OF FEES ON A HYPOTHETICAL INVESTMENT OF $96,000 IN A 0% GROSS RETURN SCENARIO

This hypothetical example assumes no withdrawals and is for illustrative purposes only. It does not reflect a specific annuity, an actual account value or the performance of any investment. The hypothetical returns illustrate a -3.2% annual net rate of return, which is made up of the following fees:

(i) M&E&A fee of 1.10%;

(ii) Benefit fee of 0.80%;

(iii) The ASTTM Multi-Sector Fixed Income Portfolio fee of 0.84%.

Note: We reserve the right to increase the benefit fee up to a maximum of 1.50% after the 7th annuity year. In this hypothetical example we assume the maximum benefit fee of 1.50% is applied after the 7th annuity year. Please see the prospectus for additional information. Additionally, an Annual Maintenance Fee may be deducted on each Annuity Anniversary. The charge is the lesser of $50 or 2% of the Account Value.
