State Pension: When do you think you will get yours?
« on: 03 September 2012, 19:49:54 »

There are changes afoot:

Enter gender & DOB and it will advise you when your state pension is due.

Please note that it only takes current legislation into account - and there are changes in the pipeline that will increase these yet again for many people.

In theory when I'm 66, but who knows what will happen when the country has its Greek moment in a few years time and even if it avoids this remember real inflation is nearer RPI and the Government uses the lower fiddled CPI, so with the massive currency debasement and inflation that will occur before our Greek moment to grow our GDP and shrink the debts, it will probably be almost worthless anyway. RPI is typically 0.9% higher than CPI.

In the next 15 years ithe state pension will lose at least 20% of its purchasing power.

Motto, don't rely on any Government to give you a comfortable retirement.

take no notice of current legislation - they'll keep making it later and later.  Plus it will be means tested

with life expectancy increasing at 1 year every 10, they'll have to do something.

You will reach your State Pension Age on Thursday 8 May 2031

You will be 66 years old

That is what they think, I am not working a day past my 65th birthday. I have worked and paid tax/NI since the age of 16 and have always done a manual job.

Get these useless freeloading uni students who dont start work until there mid twentys to do the extra years. it is blatantly unfair to expect someone who started work at 16 to work as long someone who started work at 25.

Go back to the old way of paying NI for 49 years and the problem is solved. This will make students get there finger out, and may stop a bit of immigration for financial reasons.
