I am 64 and I have no idea how this happened .

Judging by the postings here, I'm average; old enough to know better and now old enough not to give a fig either.

Wish I knew how long until retirement; I can leave and take my pension at any age between 55 and 65, albeit with penalties for taking it early and bonuses if I take it later. When I mentioned to an older colleague that it's difficult to know how much is enough he had a solution; all you need is to decide the date of death and work back from that

So, basically, it's for old farts, but not as old as I am.

As I mentioned elsewhere ... I had a conversation with a friend on this subject before Christmas. He had been putting off taking early retirement due to ill health because he didn't fancy taking the financial hit that would have involved. He died a couple of weeks later without getting the chance to take a day's worth of his pension.

So my attitude is - "A bird in the hand is worth two in the bush"!

Where does the money go that is built up by people in pensions when they die before retiring... is it classed as profit and taken out asap the same financial year as shareholders' bonuses or put in the big pension pot tp improve the return on other people's pensions? Hmmm, I wonder.....
