LGPS, is it worth it?

I'm currently enrolled in the LGPS pension scheme and my current gross wage is £20,500 a year with a 5.5% pension rate at the moment plus an additional £70 paid in monthly via AVC.

I'm 31 years old and trying to figure out what my pension pot will look like after 30 years. I understand my wage will increase over this time so I'm trying to get a basic understanding.

Could anyone help me out?

Thank you!

You will only have a "pot" from your AVC contributions - your LGPS is "defined benefits" which means whatever happens to investments/stock markets over time you will receive a "guaranteed" payment.
Log into your LGPS portal for your annual statement/forecast.
