Remember the ‘milk round’? No, not Ernie and his gold tops (kids etc.), this was when big employers visited schools and unis to recruit new blood, the majority of whom would stay with them until they collected their pensions. Now most of us end up with lots of pensions , and the temptation is to put them into one convenient pot. You can DIY it cheaply and easily online. Or use us and pay, because we get info on each, compare charges, funds, pros and cons and give advice to make sure you’re doing the right thing; so that when you get that ‘were you persuaded to transfer your pension’ text, you can’t get a dodgy claims company to come after us. You pays your money and you takes your choice.
“Aegon: Living to 100 is no longer a fantasy, but are we prepared?”
Not sure how many of us actually fantasise about living into our hundreds nor the extent to which we can prepare for it.
