To be honest here, I’m sick to death of this fucking thing. It really had made my life a misery. I’d be retired by now if it wasn’t for that cunt.

Yeh that sucks mate. My wife’s business saved us from complete ruin but I have probably lost 2 years off retiring. I was on course for 63. My dad retired at 55 and he’s 87. Retired with a full wage pension too. Props. Those days are long gone.

Haha mine must be like a frozen pea.
Defo fucking engineered
Cankles-McJeggings My mum retired once the mortgage was paid off when she was 68. My dad who turned 78 this week & is still working full-time was hoping to retire this year. No chance now what with rising energy costs and food prices going up.
Pension investment performance has been absolutely dire in the last year and for what. Everyone’s still catching the fucking thing again and again. Pity those just about to retire

What is it they reckon ? At least another 10 years to recover?
Cankles-McJeggings something like that. And now you’ve got the double whammy of those high tech stocks (remote learning, peletom etc etc) which spiked at the start of covid in absolute freefall.
Snr retired at 49.
But then he did sell millions of records worldwide.
Smallman1 Do you think you’ll make middle management by 49?
Smallman1 see, he fixed the roof while the sun was shining!

Not mine, he sourced the £4k option too!
Dubman
Fuck me fair play. I didn’t think that was even allowed? What does he do if you don’t mind me asking?
Cankles-McJeggings He works for the NHS transport services. He’s not going to stop now either. He was the manager but stepped down due to the stress of it. So now he’s just a driver.
Legend mate 👍

Bloody hell D-Man, cap doffed to your old man, what a superstar.
Massive respect but a fucking shit show he’s having to work when he should be enjoying retirement.
Thanks Gents. He’s my hero.
