    You don't "take out" an annuity, you buy one. Once it's bought it's bought end of.
    The only thing that is constant is change.

    And if you 'take out' or buy an annuity, of course you can get cash payments, every week or every month, or however yu choose to have your pension paid to you.

    A pension is the fund you build up in your working like. The annuity is the product you buy with the fund value which provides an income for the rest of your life. You cease to have a fund as you used it to buy the annuity.
