What is your pension pot worth?<br />

Do you have £250,000 or more in pensions?<br />

When you receive a statement from your<br />

provider, this might seem like a sizeable<br />

amount, but do you know what it translates to<br />

in terms of your retirement income? Andrew<br />

Boulton (right) of <strong>Dronfield</strong>-based independent<br />

financial planners, Belmayne, explains<br />

R<br />

ETIREMENT is a huge decision and one you only want<br />

to make once, so you absolutely have to get it right.<br />

The last thing you want to do is hotfoot it back to work<br />

because you’ve run out of money, or compromise your<br />

lifestyle because the price of everything has increased so<br />

dramatically.<br />

Do you actually know when you’ll be able to stop work or<br />

reduce your hours? What kind of lifestyle will the money you<br />

have saved afford you and how long will it last? Finding the<br />

answers to these questions can sometimes feel overwhelming –<br />

after all, you still have a day job to do – and it’s easy to put<br />

them on the backburner until you have more headspace.<br />

Being unsure about what your pensions will provide may also<br />

mean you end up working longer than necessary, missing out<br />

on the things you want to do and the places you want to go, at a<br />

time when you’re still feeling fit and able.<br />

So, what’s the answer? It’s simple really. Don’t put off finding<br />

the information you need any longer. Ask an expert to help and<br />

look forward to your retirement.<br />

I will give you clarity and a goal to strive towards by putting a<br />

clear financial plan in place. We will talk about your retirement<br />

so we both understand what ‘good’ looks like for you.<br />

We might even find you can stop working now, or some time<br />

soon, or maybe drop to part-time hours in the meantime.<br />

Whatever you decide, there isn’t a problem we can’t solve<br />

together. I will give you a structured, evidence-based plan in<br />

which you can have confidence and I will be here to support<br />

you all the way.<br />
