Notation
I find the use of notation heavy-handed in this article. The same content could be presented more clearly without any use of actuarial notation. This material has wider importance in finance outside the actuarial context. I therefore suggest a substantial re-write to remove the actuarial notation. I can see the use of a reference to actuarial notation, but reliance upon it for the whole body of the article makes it less readable than it would be without the actuarial notation.

 * I disagree. The notation stays, while it could still be explained more clearly. — Llywelyn II   06:50, 13 June 2015 (UTC)

PRIMARYTOPIC
This is it. It eventually needs to move back to annuity and have talk:Annuity merged with the content here that was (wrongly) previously forked from it. — Llywelyn II   06:50, 13 June 2015 (UTC)

What is "annuitization"?
It redirects here. There's also a verb "annuitize". What do they mean, in layman's terms? Equinox (talk) 03:37, 12 July 2015 (UTC)

Life annuity
can we come up with a better description of a life annuity than one that's paid while the recipient is alive? That is hopelessly vague and inappropriate for a lede section. I made an attempt by adding a second line to the lede with a description but you've reverted me. Ivanvector 🍁 (talk) 18:27, 4 November 2015 (UTC)
