Lovewell Blake Financial Planning is offering free
appointments with a qualified financial planner for people to go through their
current pension situation, with guidance on how to plan, prepare and proceed
with their pension arrangements.
“The full State Pension is currently £203.85 a week,
although this figure does depend on whether you have a full national insurance
record,” said Stephen Metcalf, manager at Lovewell Blake Financial Planning.
“Even those receiving the full State Pension may
find that they need extra pension savings to give themselves the retirement
lifestyle they desire. Many people
accumulate several different pension pots during their working lives, with
different providers, and often they don’t really understand the extent of their
pension pot or what it will give them in retirement.
“It is never too early to start thinking about
pensions, which is why we are offering these sessions during Pension Awareness Week
to help people get to grips with their retirement futures.”
Among the questions which will be answered during
the sessions are:
- How much money might my
state pension be?
- Should I get financial
advice before I retire?
- How much money do I need to
retire?
- How long will my pension
last?
- Should I buy an annuity?
- Can I take a lump sum from
my pension?
The pension guidance sessions are available
throughout Pension Awareness Week (11th-15th
September).
