2 years way from retirement. I have lost about 7k from a smallish pension pot because it was invested in funds that, I thought, were safe, Govt bonds.
I was spending about 1200 a year on fuel, now 1800, so any fuel subsidy I get from Govt action has been obliterated by my 7k loss. The pot would have paid off my mortgage. I suppose I could always remortgage.
Cheers tories
