Deferred annuity
Unlike an immediate annuity, which starts paying you income right after you buy it, a deferred annuity contract allows you to accumulate tax-deferred earnings during the term of the contract and sometimes add assets to your contract over time. Your deferred annuity earnings can be either fixed or variable, depending on the way your money is invested. Deferred annuities are designed primarily as retirement savings accounts, so you may owe a penalty if you withdraw earnings before you reach age 59 1/2.

Dividend
Corporations may pay out part of their earnings as dividends to you and other shareholders as a return on your investment. Stock dividends, which are often paid quarterly, are usually in the form of cash, but may be additional shares or scrip. You may be able to reinvest dividends to buy additional shares if the company offers a dividend reinvestment program (DRIP). Dividends are ordinarily taxable unless you own the investment through a tax-deferred account, such as an employer sponsored retirement plan or individual retirement account (IRA).

Early withdrawal

Escrow
When someone else holds assets of yours, such as money, securities, real estate, or even a deed, until the terms of a contract or an agreement are fulfilled, your assets are said to be held in escrow. The person or organization that holds the assets is the escrow agent, and the account in which they are held is an escrow account.

Federal funds
When banks have more cash available than they're required to hold in their reserve accounts, they can deposit the money in a Federal Reserve bank or lend it to another bank overnight. That money is called federal funds, and the interest rate at which the banks lend is called the federal funds rate.
