Bonus Advantage Illustration. We've improved the withdrawal capabilities of the illustration.  You can still specify amounts in terms of dollars or as a percentage of contract value, but now you can vary the amount of the withdrawal each year prior to income activation.  You can also defer income activation from 0-20 years of deferral for any scenario or may choose to never activate income.  Just another way we're making the illustration more flexible for you!
