Okay, I think I've got this. The key is understanding that the variable annuity benefits are dependent on the size of the account value at the end of the accumulation phase. So the larger the account value, the higher the variable annuity benefits will be.

Hmm, I'm a little unsure about the refund of 1991 federal income tax. Does that count as interest income too, or is it something else?

I think the key here is to stop the existing backup to RSV1 first, before setting up the new backup to RSV2. Option A seems like the logical first step.

I think a public load balancer and Traffic Manager would be the way to go here. The public load balancer can distribute the traffic across the VMs, and Traffic Manager can handle the routing from the different locations.

If the account value doesn't matter, maybe I should just throw all my money into a wood chipper. Same difference, right?
