Don Dady Net Worth 2026: Annexus Co-Founder and Its Sale

No reputable outlet has published a net worth for Don Dady, and the $12.5 million figure on the old version of this page had no source, so it has been removed. What the record shows is a successful founder in the annuity business: Dady co-founded Annexus, an Arizona company that designs fixed indexed annuities and life insurance products for major insurers, with Ron Shurts in the mid-2000s. In 2022 Integrity Marketing Group agreed to buy Annexus, with Blackstone-managed funds among the investors selling out. Property records reported by the press show he has since bought homes for $13 million in Miami Beach and $11.68 million in Paradise Valley, Arizona.

What Is Don Dady's Net Worth?

There is no sourced estimate. Annexus was privately held, the terms of the Integrity deal were not disclosed, and Dady's ownership share has never been made public. The home purchases give a sense of scale, but they are not a measure of net worth, and no financial outlet has put a figure on it.

The old page's $12.5 million estimate is also hard to square with the property records: the two homes alone cost about $24.7 million, according to the South Florida Business Journal and The Arizona Republic. That is another reason we do not repeat it.

Don Dady's Yearly Earnings, Monthly Income and Salary

The previous version said he earned $500,000 a year, $42,000 a month and $1,400 a day. There is no source for those numbers, and they have been removed. As a co-founder, his income would have come mainly from Annexus's profits and from his share of the 2022 sale, neither of which has been reported.

Annexus: The Business He Co-Founded

Annexus designs financial products, mainly fixed indexed annuities and indexed universal life insurance, that insurance companies issue and that independent advisors sell. It builds the products with carriers, actuaries and asset managers, and also supplies marketing, technology and illustration systems to its distribution partners.

• Founding: Retirement Income Journal says Dady and Shurts started Annexus in 2005; Integrity's announcement gives 2006. Both describe the founders as former financial advisors. Dady told the journal the founders saw that independent annuity distribution was "broken," with little supervision of agents, and built Annexus to handle everything a life insurer does except administration and investments: designing and pricing products, choosing indexes and writing the marketing story.
• Scale: Integrity said Annexus had served more than half a million Americans and expected to place about $7 billion in annuity premium and $150 million in target life insurance premium in 2022.
• Partners: In 2017 Nationwide shared a "Deal of the Year" award with J.P. Morgan and Annexus, according to Annexus, for the J.P. Morgan Mozaic II index offered in Nationwide's New Heights and Summit fixed indexed annuities.
• Sponsorship: In 2009 the Phoenix Suns announced a deal with the Annexus Group to sponsor the team's practice jersey and practice court, naming Dady as a partner (NBA.com).

The 2022 Sale to Integrity

On July 27, 2022, Integrity Marketing Group, a Dallas-based insurance distributor, announced an agreement to acquire Annexus. Previous Annexus investors, including funds managed by Blackstone, sold their interests as part of the deal, and co-founder and CEO Ron Shurts became a managing partner in Integrity. Financial terms were not disclosed, Integrity said.

Annexus Retirement Solutions and Annexus Ventures

In December 2020, Annexus launched Annexus Retirement Solutions to put lifetime-income annuities inside target-date funds in 401(k) plans, 401(k) Specialist reported. Dady, quoted as co-founder, said the goal was to deliver maximum retirement income through a simple, turnkey design. He is also listed as a partner of Annexus Ventures, a venture capital firm founded in 2016, by the data site Tracxn.

Early Life, Family and Education

The old page's paragraphs about his family, his wife, an unnamed university, an age of 44, a height and a weight had no source, and they have all been removed. His personal life has not been covered by reliable outlets.

Why There Is No Reliable Estimate

The Integrity purchase price and Dady's stake in Annexus are private, and he has never appeared on a published rich list. Real estate purchases are a sign of substantial wealth, but they don't tell us about debts or other holdings. Until a financial outlet reports a figure, we do not print one.
