You must be with the wrong company. I stopped paying into mine in 1998 and the fund value has been growing very well since. |

Of course, if you have a private pension, and it doesn't need to be very much, you will not be eligible for any state benefits other than the basic pension when you retire. |

Try working tax credit, no age limit on that; council tax rebate, rent rebate, free opticians/dentist/bus travel/winter heating allowance. Otherwise no additional benefits? |

The thing about being retired is that you get bored.................you can only have so many holidays a year...........redecorate the house...buy a few cars....and make things..... |
