I know it's been done to death, but I suppose I just need to vent. Both dh & I have been paying into one, like the good citizens we are. Now all of this recent trouble, like for everyone else, has caused them to nosedive. He was planning to stop work at 65, now he'll probably stay until he's 67. He's 61 this year. No one knows what will happen, but I just hope those 6 years is enough time to recover. If it does recover it'll only be enough to put us where we were in pension terms instead of moving forward.
Me, I am just about to give up my job for a career break & hoping to just go back to temping in a few months time. There's usually accounts temp work going. It's too late to withdraw my resignation as I've already started handover. I don't want to stay at my job anyway. I'm burnt out mentally & had a lot of depression this year. Felt it was starting to lift & I can feel that black cloud descending again.
Save for the future they tell us little people, then they snatch it from us in one day. We may as well have blown the money on enjoying ourselves!
