It's actually 66 here, but it's going up to 67 by the end of 2028.

Yeah I had in my head it was 55 as we used to have a range of ads that would run "If you're over 55 and still working full time..." in relation to drawing superannuation (private pension) but clearly I haven't watched FTA tv in some time! <laugh>

What's the retirement age over there?
In the UK, the State Pension age, which is the age at which you can start claiming your State Pension, is currently 66 for men and women. However, this age is set to increase to 67 between 2026 and 2028, affecting those born on or after April 6, 1960.

Another hike due in 2037,which will take it to 68...

I wouldn't mind if there was a decent pot of gold at the end of it but sadly it'll simply cover an existance...

Depending on your employer,you might be allowed time off to attend:emoticon-0102-bigsm

I've got 2 years plus to go and I'm currently out of work due to health issues,money wise and God willing I'll need to get back to work ASAP but I don't hold out much hope of anyone employing me due to my age.I had just short of £4k in that nest pension scheme and I took it all last week to get by...I'm like a millionaires bastard at the moment:emoticon-0102-bigsm

I’ve been paying into a pension scheme for about 10 years now, I always wonder if it’s actually worth it the chance of me reaching my 60’s or even my 50’s must be slim to none <laugh>

Heres a strange one... PUERTA...

Seems Wolves have been in contact, but the weird thing is this.

Puerta is set to join Hull City on a permanent deal this summer but the Colombian could move on as quickly as he joins. A report from the midfielder’s home nation suggests the Tigers will buy 60 per cent of Puerta’s rights for €3.5 million (£2.9m), with Leverkusen to remain the other 40 per cent.

Bullshit, can’t have shared ownership in England.

Absolutely keep paying into it. Unless you have high interest debt (eg credit card balances) to pay off or you literally have no spare money it's a no brainer. 20% tax relief bonus for free. Just make sure it's invested in low cost globally diversified funds with 70% or more in stocks (rest in bonds) until you are nearer to your chosen retirement date. Give it time to work it's magic. You almost certainly won't regret it.

I've done my share lad. I choose to retire after close to 50 years of work.
I was never a shirker like you, spending half your day (and night) on here, calling people ****s, being an obnoxious repetitive boring over-reactionay twat, when you should be working, not short changing our kids. You should take a long hard look in the mirror, be honest with yourself, get your life sorted because atm you are an embarrassment to your profession and a disgrace.
