Form FWP BRIGHTHOUSE LIFE INSURAN Filed by: BRIGHTHOUSE LIFE INSURANCE Co

My name's Kristin Cronhardt and I own my own small business. I'm not retired yet. I'm fifty-one. I do have a goal of retirement around the age of 65.

I started working with a financial professional about 17 years ago. I really wanted to start looking at my financial future. I'm somebody that's a little bit conservative, so I’m teased a little bit about having the first dollar that I made. When I sat down with my financial professional and she mentioned another annuity, I kind of questioned her on it because I didn't understand why I would want to add one when I already had one in the portfolio.

So after she reviewed the Shield Level Annuity with me, I thought it was a really interesting opportunity for me because it had so many different things about it that I really liked and kind of fit me as an investor.

My understanding of how a Shield Level Annuity works and the things that I like the most about it were the tax deferred growth, no management fees, and I really like the 10 percent downturn protection because I feel like it helped minimize my risk in the investment.

I feel really good about my financial future. I get so busy with my life that I don't take time to kind of stop and do some of the more fun things that I think that I will be able to do in my retirement.

There are different versions of Shield Level annuities in addition to the specific version Kristin owns.
