Posted: 16:01 - 30 Jun 2021 Post subject: Pensions! |
|
|
Yep that boring subject we all try to ignore...
I've finally decided at my grand age of 45 to get to grips with my pensions. I've worked for many companies over the years from a few months to over 10 years, getting the information is painful .
I've managed to find most of them and register for the relevant pension companies online, good starting point! However I've found a couple of companies I've been with for longer many years ago, I no longer have paperwork for or any idea of who the pension was with.
I've tried the government pension finder website, but it's pretty useless when you search a company name and 20 different variations appear.
Anyone any good advice on how to find old pensions?
The 2nd part is, what do I do with them?
I've got pension pots with a couple of £100 up to some £1000's - is it better to try and port them all in to 1 pot? Or keep them separate for security in case any companies go under. ____________________ Previous: Aprilia Habana Retro 50cc (beauty), Yamaha SR125 (fell apart), Honda XR125 (nippy little commuter), Honda SLR650 (Geewhizz), Yamaha Diversion 900S (Smoooooth) written off courtesy of a stupid escaped horse.
(7 year gap), BMW F650 (Relaxing ride). Aprilia Caponord ETV1000 (Big and bold). Yamaha FZS600 (got me in trouble too quick!).
Current: Yamaha TDM 900 (Comfy, light but big, power when needed). |

Start early putting money away for a pension, and keep doing so.
Get a pre-nup.
Diversify into other assets (property, shinythings) when you can.
Get a pre-nup.
Thoroughly read medical insurance documents
Get a pre-nup.
Make the effort to understand your own financial investment profile
Get a pre-nup.
Several of my consorts have been good little boys and saved their arses off, even after (in most cases) being utterly rinsed by messy divorces, and are now extremely comfortably off. ____________________ Not nearly as interesting in real life. |
