ok so im 30, in the public sector and it looks like my normal retirement age will be 😯 . I’ve been paying into a pension since i was ~19 in some shape or form. News is that contribuitions will be going up ~3% of salary next year along with a dilution of the end benefits….
anyway me and the missus are having a baby and the additional ~200/month would come in handy for the first few years. Assuming that i can have a break (i have asked the question) as if i was say a woman having a baby and start paying a couple a year or two later does this seem like that mental of an idea ?
I might think about taking some financial advice other than an internet forum 😆 but maybe someone has done this already?
