What happens if I live longer or less than life expectancy?

Payments go on until you (or the surviving spouse with a married couple) die, no matter whether that is sooner or later than life expectancy.

Life expectancy is just the number used to calculate the size of the payments.

After your death (or the surviving spouse's) the annuity becomes null and void.
