Re: What's It Take To Retire Comfortably?
Started planning for retirement ten years ago when I took voluntary redundancy. Mortgage got paid off (shared ownership property), car loan got paid off, the rest stayed invested. Topped up over the years by donations from parents (to all 4 of us children), and also by other savings & pension schemes.Re: What's It Take To Retire Comfortably?
What does it take - enough money to do whatever you want, when you want to do it. Of course it's difficult to plan exactly - a few years ago you could get a good interest on savings and state pension age was a couple of years lower.Re: What's It Take To Retire Comfortably?
Due to circumstances, I've never had the opportunity to save a lot, but as an OAP, I'm happy.Re: What's It Take To Retire Comfortably?
The worst thing is having settled into your rut and managed to sort out your affairs so that you are self sufficient and not a burden on anyone, is to then see your children and even grandchildren struggling with the Countries economic and employment difficulties.
