I've just Adulted and done my pension forecast (not eligible for another seven years, but thought I'd check).
I'm entitled to full state pension (phew, was a bit worried, hence checking). And my state pension is going to be more than I earn currently, most months.
The point of this post is really just me going 'wha'?', I mean, I know I'm not paid a great deal and I'm quite often pegged down to basic hours at present and I'm very grateful and all, but....
surely this shouldn't be possible? Add in the pittance I've currently got in private pensions and I'll be better off at 67 than I am at 60. Okay, if work up my hours I can earn more, but that's sporadic and unpredictable. My pension will come in monthly and I don't even have to do anything for it?
I dunno. It feels all kinds of wrong.
