Free money, I agree, but the government will do its best to take it back. We get taxed on our income, taxed on our savings, taxed on our pensions. In essence, it's legalized theft! Thanks for the video. I absolutely agree that too few people know about the best ways they can achieve financial security.

With markets tumbling, inflation soaring, the Fed imposing large interest-rate hike, while treasury yields are rising rapidly-which means more red ink for portfolios this quarter.

I like having a portfolio coach guide my day-to-day market decisions: with their extensive knowledge of going long and short at the same time, their skillset makes it nearly impossible for them to underperform. I've been utilizing a portfolio coach for more than two years, and I've made over $300,000. ' John Steven Barr' is among the most accomplished portfolio managers in the industry, widely acknowledged for his outstanding work. I highly recommend taking a closer look at his impressive portfolio.

@vinchenzo678 Год назад

Excellent video... I think it's a discrace (having paid into a pension) the government then turn around and keep raising the age you can draw on it... Its OUR money! France was recently sticking as the their State pension was being raised from 60 - 64 years old. Us Brits really need to grow some Cahoniez.

@kennethchin278 8 месяцев назад

Agreed, that is a very valid point, I work in finance for over 25 years, I think pensions are very much misunderstood, and the current Government and previous decided to raise the retirement age it is disgraceful (we know why, people are living longer), plus one will be taxed either at the start of the process - when you work (via National Income/TAX) or at the end of the process when you come to withdraw your hard earned cash from the pension. One should look at pensions as part of a good retirement plan with other types of assets or investments. The days of Golden pensions are long gone for most of us. Check out the HMRC Pensions Tax Manual. for example of limp sum commutation examples. I fear future governments will try to raise the age yet again.

Great video. I worked for a very large and well known company and have recently become a pension rep. Its a voluntary role but I'm passionate that all employees, particularly the younger ones, get educated to know their options available. The company only offers DC now to new members but its pretty generous at 8+12 but some newer joiners are still in the auto enrollment level. Fine that everyone's situation is different when it comes to what they can or want to save but I just like to make sure they are aware if all the options and figures. I'm really enjoying it.

I admire the financial independence of people, But you can live better if you work a little more. After watching this I think there are people out there, on the extreme, who plan to die early just to be able to retire early. To each their own but to me, retirement isn't just about not having to work, it's about having the freedom to do whatever you might reasonably want, such as travel, buying things, enjoying life, etc. I don't think I could retire with less than $3m in income-generating investments, maybe $2m at the very minimum. I plan to work until I'm at least 45

Good stuff ! Very informative. I worked in the financial services industry for around 8 years leaving around 1994. I then went work for a good company that had 1/60th scheme and AVC contribution got this down to 56th scheme (22years service) This year it folded because the final salary scheme costs a fortune to maintain so I am now in a DC scheme ! Because my employer closed the DB scheme they are giving us an £8000 x2 bonus into the DC scheme. I am 58 now and tend to bail out in 2 years at age 60. My only concerns at going at 60 is I will have to mantain my NI contributions ! Draw down all the way. Taking benefits from DB scheme ! I could pass away and my kids wouldn't get a penny unless I elected for this hence reducing my pension. Thanks for sharing

Given the upcoming N.I increase I think more people will be looking at their salary sacrifice schemes in the hope of recouping some of that cost.

Given that we are not accustomed to such uncertain markets, the fact that the US stock market has been on its longest bull run ever makes the widespread anxiety and excitement comprehensible. There are opportunities if you know where to go, as you noted that it wasn't difficult for me to earn more than $780k in the previous 10 months. Since I was aware that I would need a reliable and strong plan to get through these tough times, I engaged a portfolio advisor.

Dont forget to grow an instant access emergency fund (possibly mostly un premium bonds) of 3 to 6 months expenditure - its crucial to have this so that you ding gave to sell shares when the market is down. When the market falls it often coincides with when people need to fall back on some savings.

@@goodlifeliving1667 If you're in the UK and auto enrolled there is likely some level of matching. I've never had to worry too much about hitting contribution limits though. For taxation, 20% relief is applied by the broker, if you are a higher rate payer you put extra on a self assessment or I expect there is another form to claim with.

Different, not better. Property is a great asset class, but very tax-inefficient and illiquid. Fine if you have tenants, but income drops to zero if you don’t. If possible try to get to the point where you have multiple strings to your bow - property AND pensions?!

@BuxStop Год назад

Great explanation, but also exactly how I understood pensions. I thought I might’ve been missing something when many ppl say how good it is. In any pension, I don’t like how the money feels like it’s being held hostage. There’s always the risk of dying before getting it - I’m aware if terminal you can withdraw early. But I guess if ur dead doesn’t really matter either way 😅 In theory if stock market dies, it’s not worth anything right. Never say never. I have no faith in state pension as gov can change goal posts at any point - I.e. age limit or tax percentage etc. I realise that due to being low income, it’s actually quite a big chunk to pay when I need the money now… or at least have flexibility with money. I wonder what the alternatives to pensions are, since it just seems like an investment. I have a lifetime isa for a house, where gov adds 25%. Feels like we need multiple investments
