What age do you think you will retire by?

[SleepDreamThinkHuge]

I am close to 30 and I have read reports during my time retirement age could easily reach 75. Currently have no savings, investments or pension contributions due to needing money for unexpected circumstances. Gaining experience in the public sector now it things go well and I can progress hopefully a better salary in the next few years which should help me save more and invest my money. Realistically the latest I would like to stop working full time is by 60-65. I do not mind working part time after 65. However that depends how much I can save, salary progression etc..

When do you think you can realistically fully retire by or work part time only?

Hopefully between 60 and 65, I'm 46 now. DH and I were born the same year so hopefully we can retire or wind down at the same time. We need to keep working until 60 anyway as that'll be the year the youngest graduates if she goes to uni. After that, as soon as we can but I worry about the obstacles the Government will put in our way.

Never if the government have anything to do with it. I'm 40 and the state pension age keeps getting pushed up all the time. My mum and MIL are waspies and I have a couple of colleagues who are waspies too. Our generation will never be able to enjoy retirement at this rate.
