    Let the good times roll - pension BOOST!!!

    That's right, YOU can buy it!!!



    Not for £25, but you can get £25 of pension BOOST!!! for just £890 shown not to scale on the photo below -



    " Pensioners will be able to buy an extra £25 a week in state pension from next year under plans published by the Government today.

    The cost will vary depending on a person’s age. For a 65-year-old, each additional £1 a week will cost £890, the Department for Work & Pensions said. The maximum £25 addition will cost £22,250.

    The Government has produced a calculator to show the costs more clearly at gov.uk/state-pension-topup. The offer will be open to all existing pensioners and anyone reaching state pension age within the next two years before the new flat-rate state pension is introduced. "

      This sort of thing is very likely to shorten your lifespan considerably.

      Be careful...

          ...

          So not taking inflation into account, you need to live to 82.5 to see any benefit?

            It's a better return than most equities.
