I draw pen to forum courtesy of a poster from the Jukebox thread and his song of the evening The Penny Arcade:I was recently offered a pension from my new employer and they advocated I took up their gracious deal.In my opinion as much use as a chocolate fireguard because most working class heroes will have saddles removed at 67 arses slapped and instead of galloping off to roll in a luxurious bed of hay will sadly just winney and drop.
But we will top up your contributions Bob and in seven years you will have a substantial nest egg.
But neigh said I who was worldly wise to the shenanigans of the financial wolfs of wall street that came in sheep's clothing and without reproach would have us over for fat lads.
What about our pension top ups and cold weather payments and national health service glasses free scripts and dental work : /
If I take your 7 year pension plan we will lose all this goodness as it will take us "just" outside the levels of qualification and beside the point pensions were designed for much longer periods.I declined so we will both piss away our bullets right here right now on fine living dining swimming and song and then shall produce ourselves with not a pot to piss in.
Do we want to go down hill skiing at 68 or discover our inner selves in the foot hills of mouche picho at three score and ten.
No ..we will want to sit at home drinking tea and eat kipling cakes whilst dribblin down our chins under a setting sun and that costs diddly.
The dream they conjure up is man made and you have all been programmed to join in their dance.
Why not dance a different dance like Mr Sharston's song and come with us to spend your last dime.
Tony West always goes down a storm with the regulars !
The authors opinion is just that and bears no resemblance to the Moon corporation or their affiliates.
Do remember with all financial planning to do your own research.
