How do workplace pensions work? | #Money Hotline 3 The Wallet
-
- Education
Today, we answer a question from Jamey — a 26-year-old who is a passionate advocate for young people getting an early start on saving for retirement.
Having recently started a new job, Jamey wants to increase how much she pays into her workplace pension. However, her employer is hesitant due to the perceived admin involved. She asks us how to move the conversation forward and what other options are available to her.
Today on The Wallet:
1/ Financial Adviser and founder of Ladies Finance Club, Lisa Conway-Hughes joins me to provide an overview of workplace pensions, how they work, how much you can save each year and the benefits of opting in.
2/ It’s a common concern that the state pension won’t be enough to support us in our retirement years, so Lisa walks us through the different private pensions available and how to get to grips with planning for our future selves.
