In the 1990s I sold pensions on the strenght that the tax free lump sum would pay off most if not all of the mortgage and leave the investor with a pension for life. Most were over a 40 year term plus, I was not alone.
The approach of selling pensions with the promise that a tax-free lump sum would pay off mortgages and provide a lifelong pension was common in the 1990s. However, many factors can affect the outcome, including changes in the housing market and interest rates. It's crucial for investors to seek personalized advice and consider diversified financial strategies to ensure long-term financial stability.

I'm intrigued by this. I've searched for financial advisers online but it's kind of hard to get in touch with one. Okay if I ask you for a recommendation?
I've experimented with a few over the past years, but I've stuck with ‘’Nicole Anastasia Plumlee” for about five years now, and her performance has been consistently impressive. She’s quite known in her field, look her up.
I’m quite happy for the government to look into ex government employees including MP’s who retire at 55 on a final salary scheme. Why can’t they dip into this pot and let all them live on £12570 per annum like most pensioners. And, make these employees work until they’re 66 or 67 like the rest of us
Let me explain why. When you are in the public sector you have to pay in to a pension. Yes it was final salary, but you do pay in. The contributions are generally higher than what you pay in a private pension. You have signed up to a contract to retire at 65. My example is that they moved the retirement date back to 67. As I am in private sector now I can’t do anything to add to that pension. When they didn’t give pay rises that also meant the pension didn’t go up so was eroded significantly by inflation. 4 years of inflation eating away at it. Those 2 years that I won’t get amount to 24k being taken from me. From something that I have paid into. I don’t get a bigger pension per year because they are deferring it. It’s just theft. If they then combine all of the local government pensions and then misuse it we will see them not paying any pension at all.
Well said. I'm paying 14% towards my pension each month. Not many willing to join public sector due to this. Like you said, when we all were on a pay freeze for a number of years, nobody said anthing .
Steverick 4329 Yes on minimum wages too like many, many others, after all they have done a disastrous job and they still expect us to pay them big bucks for their failures on the, economy, the national debt, BREXIT, the migrant crisis, Ireland, COVID, WASPI women, the cost of living, OAP’s, winter fuel allowance, pensions, triple lock, child benefits cap, the squandering of our tax money, our armed forces , the migrant crisis, migrant accommodation costs, health costs, legal aid costs , translator costs, benefit costs,,migrant, child benefits etc, etc, etc-, border control, energy costs, water costs, pollution of our waterways and oceans, the damage to UK’s fishing waters, fishing industry, the loss of our iron, steel and motor industries, the curtailment of North Sea Oil and gas, grid lock, , substandard roads, transport, railways, TV license fees, crumbling schools, colleges and universities, overflowing prisons, millions of British pounds to France, millions./ billions to the Eu still, hundreds of thousands/millions to Rwanda, the loss of independence and attempt to remove our free choices and free speech, the NHS, the environment, housing, etc., etc, etc, the list just goes on and on and on ….

I honestly think America needs a completely restructure of their political system. It is just not working. Trump and Biden being elected out of 300 million people to run the country is evidence for that too.
This is why the US should elect more progressive politicians, who know how to manage budgets and give us (yes, pur country's initials literally spell out that pronoun) much better tax credits in return for better public education and better public healthcare. but since these are nonexistent, my husband and I are being guided to finance our retirement and healthcare through a diversified investment portfolio

If government introduces means testing of the state pension, apart from being tantamount to theft, this will massively discourage people from saving into a personal pension.
I have paid in 40 years with 10 years to go,,, if they want to stop the state pension they should give say a 30 year old who has paid in since 18 give them 100000 to invest ….. then some who has paid in 40 years give them 400000 to invest .. somebody who has paid in 50 years give them 600000 to invest ,, the idea is anybody over 18 has to have reduce NS or cancel NS to pay private no state pension .but they cannot screw over people who have been told to pay Pay pay and state pension will be waiting for you then say no,,,,,,
Thank you for your honesty and transparency. It's refreshing to see someone acknowledging the harsh reality of rising prices, which are leaving many of us feeling battered and bruised.While I'm grateful to be in a position to absorb these costs, my heart goes out to those who are struggling to make ends meet and can't afford their basic necessities. I made $17k from my little invested $8k regardless of how bad it gets on the economy.
I lost over £11,000 when everything started to tank. Not because I was in an exchange that went belly up. I was just stupid to hold and because that's what everyone said.
I haven't forgotten how much Gordon Brown cost me when he ignored warnings about Equitable Life. I don't trust Starmer an inch further than I can throw him. Labour's mantra should be "You will be severely punished for being financially responsible".
Really concerned they will bring in means testing and say anyone with a private pension is 'too wealthy' for the state pension, even if they have paid in all the require NI over decades. There are too many freeloaders now.
I've worked all my life and have the full 35 years of qualifying NI payments, for a full state pension. However, after building a healthy private pension pot. I now have 7 years before I retire and It looks like I potentially won't get any state pension, if means testing and other limiting policies are introduced. This effectively means I'll lose £12K+ a year, of my pension income. I probably won't be entitled to any other benefits or tax credits either and I'll pay tax on that pension. All because i thought I was doing the right thing. Therefore, from my point of view, you're better off spending more of your money now, rather than trying to have a comfortable life later, which you're penalised for. Have less, get more.
@dogkicker100 I've actually got 42 years, but i believe you only need 35 years of qualifying NI contributions, for the full state pension. Potentially all wasted contributions, depending on what is introduced, as part of cost cutting.
I feel exactly the same! If you don’t try and better yourself then you get the benefits. If you try and provide for your family by saving a bit extra then you are completely penalised. Is it any wonder we have so many people wanting to come to the UK and receive incredible benefits for doing nothing. Crazy world!!
@@Mudbath60 there was no commitment to keeping it but i take your point. I'd be very surprised if they do this, the reaction from the tens of millions who've always paid their NI with this expectation would be fatal for them.

Great video, I’m 40. retired a while at 39. I have 35% of my capital investments in an IRA. 25% in index funds, and the balance spread across other investments acts. In cumulative of over $5m. I receive income from my rental properties too. Zero debt and all is going accordingly.
Indeed, most people downplay the roles of financial advisors until they are burnt by their mistakes. Productivity is optimized and keeping up to date strategies and analysis makes it more lucrative. I’ve been able to navigate the volatilities and scaled up 80k to 20k with an advisor
Pensioners need to be assured that their pensions are safe. After all pensioners have to plan how they are going to manage in retirement. It’s extremely unfair of the Government to put this stress onto pensioners, it’s cruel.
People need to take responsibility for themselves later in life and I have news for you that we are going to see a banking bust soon and pension funds and insurance companies are going to fail as well the government didn't see this coming even when they did LDI crisis was easy to predict by looking at the yields I made a few pounds on that

The way council tax is going up and standing charges on energy bills there goes that extra £11,000. Also, they want to put up the retirement age from 67 to 70, so HMRC shall be getting an extra 3 year's tax and NI contributions, do they think we are all idiots.
They raise the pension age to take more from us and hope you cark it not long after retirement, where they then keep all your pension pot. All a scam to continually rob us blind.
@@jamesplummer356 the evidence suggests that is not true. Look at the performance for growth of different govts since the war. Conservatives make the ordinary person poorer. Just a fact. However the very wealthy do gain under them.

@@anthonydeakin3834 you’re only entitled to a full state pension if you’ve contributed 35 years of NI. If you die before 67, you get nothing. It’s not a pension pot
Oh my God, as an Australian observer, the archaic UK pension “system” is insanely, unnecessarily complex, and I suspect deliberately so. It’s almost as if it has been designed so that an endless train of middlemen can harvest hidden fees for decades and leave you with a pittance at retirement. Is this why London’s financial services industry is so profitable? It’s all your money, but add the word “pension” and it seems to become “their” money. Madness!
@tomonetruth hardly my personal greed. I've paid in for 50 years, got nothing out. Have every expectation of being fleeced for care, and, if that does not take 'enough' HMRC will expect 40% of much of what is left. There is no incentive for a youngster to 'budget responsibly'.
To all the youngsters reading the fools comments, if you start putting just £100 per month away at age 18 and increase that amount by 2.5% per year and manage to achieve an average 5% growth rate, when you reach state pension age at 68 you will have over £407,000.......and you will probably also have state pension on top of this......or maybe you could take brians advice
Thats a poor attitude to take that shows how much you don't understand they need to be tought how to manage fiat property and then show them how to save money for what they want to buy and then how to invest help them identify what kind of investor would they be valued or a speculative investor they are the only 2 choices on offer

As means testing is likely coming in for the state pension for those with a private pensions or savings or both, you will not be eligible for a state pension even if you have paid NI so there's no incentive to take out a private pension or save unless your private pension is sufficiently adequate to support you in old age. The scrapping of winter fuel allowance is the first bow shot over our state pension.
@@LatinoAaron No but there will be benefits that will equal or be more than the state pension . That's only if you blow all your money or live on benefits. Hence why everybody is on benefits. That plan worked well, government.
We all paid into it. Same as paying into a private pension.. Well i took out a private on advice.. Paid heavily into it for over 25 years.. Then in the year of Maturity. it collapsed and ended up with £200 a month and i still pay Tax. So i carried on working until 65 where I RELY on the, OAP PENSION.
U worked since 16 and contributed all my working life, even had to ait 6 years more, plus we are denied the compensation awarded to us, now they want to take frim the pension we earned
He is saying to invest more into you private pension pot? If you do that they will stop your penion credit and you will not qualify for any other benefits will you? they are also going to means test you and if you have too much in your account or any income from any other investment you made they are going to cut your state pension. If you have below a certain amount in the bank and no private pension you will get pension credit and all the other freebies that are available so you will be well off, so think about it.
I'm laughing at all of you on here God help the next generation if they take notice of any of this pile of garbage governments owe you nothing if they change the rules thats what they will do if you had looked after yourself it would not be an issue
I get the full pension after working from 15 to 68 yo and a small army pension so I can't get pension credit. That doesn't mean I can afford to lose the winter payment for the simple reason that the energy companies have been allowed to rip us off for years now. If this government going to take the payment then the must return the fuel cap to where it was before we got that payment.
Did you know that pension providers take a fee no matter how well the fund has performed and if you adjust it inflation your cash equivalent is going to be even less than you would expect

The problem is most people cannot understand the complexity of the ever changing pension schemes. So you rely on a financial advisor who I have always found only does what is best for their commission and are not bothered about your interest . If you try to take them on you find when they have feathered there nest you can not get anywhere because they have now changed there company name.
Im a skilled engineer, worked 46 years, but iv been made redundant 3 times, and some off the jobs I did after 18yrs with the 1st company ,i only stayed say 6 months . So just small amounts. And over that time no one advised me, lukly ive saved, so i dont trust pension advisers, thay come and go. Plus different politiostions.
I think what most people are concerned about is this new government are going to take our pensions away if we have other forms of income when we retire like other pensions ect. We have paid into the pension scheme and it’s / may be taken away.
I’m in an nhs pension scheme the 2008 final salary scheme pays out when I’m 65 3 years from now the other 2015 scheme amalgamated over the last 3 years salary pays when I’m 67 , the mccloud stated we were wrongly moved into the 2015 schemes but putting that aside ..I want to take my lump sums will the new bill stop me doing this. .. I have paid in since 2008 when I started working for the NHS
great video people need to plan for the future i did not brilliant but i could manage a lot of people who depend on the state pension are in for a surprise they have taken the winter fuel allowance whats coming next
i had an old pension with guaranteed 11% bonus per year.another provider took over my pension and did away with my bonus as it deemed it unfair to newer investers.they do as they like and say feck you.
this all sounds great if you are in a secure staff role but not for contractors that potentially work one month then live on their wages and have to wait until the next job comes in which might take a further few months. this means they couldn't save 10% each month or even put any away for their future pension and then will rely on the state pension of sell assets such as downsizing their house.
Well this is an eye-opener! I worked in the public sector up until 2000 with a final salary pension that becamse deferred. I've got 8 working years left and it will yeild a fairly decent lump sum payment and manageable monhtley pension payment. Post 2000, I moved into the private sector as a contractor but was unable to make AVCs to my public sector pension. I've accumulated several small pension pots but finally consolidated them into one main pot which I still make AVCs to when I'm working. Given Gordon Brown disaterous pension raid in 1997. Starmer's ideas are very concerning and I worry that all the effort of paying in AVCs will actually see me worse off.
My pensions (government and private) were paid for with blood, sweat and tears; the thieves are justifying their actions BUT my pension was never sold as a benefit when I started work.
Retirees who struggle to meet their basic needs are the ones who could not accumulate enough money during their active years to meet their needs. Retirement choices determine a lot of things. My parents both spent same number of years in the civil service, but my mom was investing through a wealth manager, and my dad through the 401k.
This is true. I'm in my mid 50's now. My wife and I were following this same trajectory. Last two years, I pulled out my money and invested with her wealth manager. Not catching up with her profits over the years, but at least I earn more. I'm making money even before retiring, and my retirement fund has grown way more than it would have with just the 401(k). Haha.
It's true, not everyone has access to this kind of information. Lack of knowledge can definitely make people panic. But it's amazing that you've been able to make over $287k passively through investing with an advisor! Having a great wealth manager can really make a difference, regardless of how the economy is doing. Keep up the good work!
At a point like this, when the pressure is already on you to retire, its best recommended you seek the services of an adviser, as this allows you make smarter investing decisions.
'Grace Adams Cook' , is the licensed advisor I use. Just research the name. You’d find necessary details to work with a correspondence to set up an appointment.
As it stands right now, if someone has paid all the necessary NI contributions - are they entitled to recieve state pension if they move abroad? Same questions for SIPPs
As a teacher I’ve invested over 10% for my entire career. Everyone should HAVE to do this so they do t rely on the state to support them and pay rent for them when they’re older
Just subscribed. I’ve been taking my pension by drawdown since 2020 and I am reasonably happy with it. I also have a significant amount of money in high interest rate bank accounts. How will all these changes affect me? In addition when you speak of gold I assume you don’t physically hold gold but someone does this for you in which case there would be charges applied.

Everyone should take responsibility for their own provision I don't want government to tell me what to do with my earnings I'm old enough to decide what to do myself I certainly would never trust politicians who are experts at theifing
Labour will introduce a mandatory pension for every PAYE earner eventually (those who does not have already a private pension), collected by HRMC and represented on one’s P60, not only will this capture 100% of the workforce, but it will give the government exchequer billions up front decades before having to pay it back (kicking the can down the road economics) mark my words every issued PPS number will end up paying a mandatory pension contribution within the next four years.
I'm a British xpat! The question I'd like to ask you! What would you sergest for advice about our pensions! On who would be the people to get in contact with 😊?.
My work place does allow matched contributions into a SIPP but I would lose the benefit of saving on NI (8%) and student loan (9%) without salary sacrifice. The workplace DC is a target that will go into bonds eventually but all in global stocks right now, I can change the risk class as well. Overall fee is 0.17%. I don't see the advantage of changing to a SIPP as it stands.

I honestly think America needs a completely restructure of their political system. It is just not working. Trump and Biden being elected out of 300 million people to run the country is evidence for that too.
This is why the US should elect more progressive politicians, who know how to manage budgets and give us (yes, pur country's initials literally spell out that pronoun) much better tax credits in return for better public education and better public healthcare. but since these are nonexistent, my husband and I are being guided to finance our retirement and healthcare through a diversified investment portfolio

If government introduces means testing of the state pension, apart from being tantamount to theft, this will massively discourage people from saving into a personal pension.
Or working.
I have paid in 40 years with 10 years to go,,, if they want to stop the state pension they should give say a 30 year old who has paid in since 18 give them 100000 to invest ….. then some who has paid in 40 years give them 400000 to invest .. somebody who has paid in 50 years give them 600000 to invest ,, the idea is anybody over 18 has to have reduce NS or cancel NS to pay private no state pension .but they cannot screw over people who have been told to pay Pay pay and state pension will be waiting for you then say no,,,,,,

Really concerned they will bring in means testing and say anyone with a private pension is 'too wealthy' for the state pension, even if they have paid in all the require NI over decades.
There are too many freeloaders now.
That is a fact so lookout folks.
I've worked all my life and have the full 35 years of qualifying NI payments, for a full state pension. However, after building a healthy private pension pot. I now have 7 years before I retire and It looks like I potentially won't get any state pension, if means testing and other limiting policies are introduced. This effectively means I'll lose £12K+ a year, of my pension income. I probably won't be entitled to any other benefits or tax credits either and I'll pay tax on that pension. All because i thought I was doing the right thing. Therefore, from my point of view, you're better off spending more of your money now, rather than trying to have a comfortable life later, which you're penalised for. Have less, get more.
@dogkicker100 I've actually got 42 years, but i believe you only need 35 years of qualifying NI contributions, for the full state pension. Potentially all wasted contributions, depending on what is introduced, as part of cost cutting.
I feel exactly the same! If you don’t try and better yourself then you get the benefits. If you try and provide for your family by saving a bit extra then you are completely penalised. Is it any wonder we have so many people wanting to come to the UK and receive incredible benefits for doing nothing. Crazy world!!
There's been no reference to means testing the state pension? you should still get it.
@@Mudbath60 there was no commitment to keeping it but i take your point. I'd be very surprised if they do this, the reaction from the tens of millions who've always paid their NI with this expectation would be fatal for them.

Oh my God, as an Australian observer, the archaic UK pension “system” is insanely, unnecessarily complex, and I suspect deliberately so.

Is this why London’s financial services industry is so profitable? It’s all your money, but add the word “pension” and it seems to become “their” money. Madness!

My advice for any youngster. Piss it away as you get it. If nothing else you will get your old folks care free.
Awful advice, based on your personal greed and resentments, rather than what will actually benefit those youngsters.
@tomonetruth hardly my personal greed. I've paid in for 50 years, got nothing out. Have every expectation of being fleeced for care, and, if that does not take 'enough' HMRC will expect 40% of much of what is left. There is no incentive for a youngster to 'budget responsibly'.
To all the youngsters reading the fools comments, if you start putting just £100 per month away at age 18 and increase that amount by 2.5% per year and manage to achieve an average 5% growth rate, when you reach state pension age at 68 you will have over £407,000.......and you will probably also have state pension on top of this......or maybe you could take brians advice
Thats a poor attitude to take that shows how much you don't understand they need to be tought how to manage fiat property and then show them how to save money for what they want to buy and then how to invest help them identify what kind of investor would they be valued or a speculative investor they are the only 2 choices on offer

I hope you have some gold and silver if you haven't then you are going to be 1 of them who goes broke
Excellent words of wisdom IMO
As means testing is likely coming in for the state pension for those with a private pensions or savings or both, you will not be eligible for a state pension even if you have paid NI so there's no incentive to take out a private pension or save unless your private pension is sufficiently adequate to support you in old age.
The scrapping of winter fuel allowance is the first bow shot over our state pension.
I think you'll find the incentive to save is that there will be no state pension in about 15-20 years.

i had an old pension with guaranteed 11% bonus per year.another provider took over my pension and did away with my bonus as it deemed it unfair to newer investers.they do as they like and say feck you.
this all sounds great if you are in a secure staff role but not for contractors that potentially work one month then live on their wages and have to wait until the next job comes in which might take a further few months. this means they couldn't save 10% each month or even put any away for their future pension and then will rely on the state pension of sell assets such as downsizing their house.
Well this is an eye-opener! I worked in the public sector up until 2000 with a final salary pension that becamse deferred. I've got 8 working years left and it will yeild a fairly decent lump sum payment and manageable monhtley pension payment. Post 2000, I moved into the private sector as a contractor but was unable to make AVCs to my public sector pension. I've accumulated several small pension pots but finally consolidated them into one main pot which I still make AVCs to when I'm working. Given Gordon Brown disaterous pension raid in 1997. Starmer's ideas are very concerning and I worry that all the effort of paying in AVCs will actually see me worse off.
I wish I earned £34,963 don’t even receive 1/2 that so my question is what’s the point paying into any pension
My pensions (government and private) were paid for with blood, sweat and tears; the thieves are justifying their actions BUT my pension was never sold as a benefit when I started work.
Retirees who struggle to meet their basic needs are the ones who could not accumulate enough money during their active years to meet their needs. Retirement choices determine a lot of things. My parents both spent same number of years in the civil service, but my mom was investing through a wealth manager, and my dad through the 401k.
This is true. I'm in my mid 50's now. My wife and I were following this same trajectory. Last two years, I pulled out my money and invested with her wealth manager. Not catching up with her profits over the years, but at least I earn more. I'm making money even before retiring, and my retirement fund has grown way more than it would have with just the 401(k). Haha.
It's true, not everyone has access to this kind of information. Lack of knowledge can definitely make people panic. But it's amazing that you've been able to make over $287k passively through investing with an advisor! Having a great wealth manager can really make a difference, regardless of how the economy is doing. Keep up the good work!
At a point like this, when the pressure is already on you to retire, its best recommended you seek the services of an adviser, as this allows you make smarter investing decisions.
Can you recommend any? I am in need of a Cfp to grow my retirement account.
