A chat about pensions

18 May 2010
Met with my pension man to discuss long term plans. It seems the plans may work and income will be a combination of rental and income. The possibility of having a draw-down pension whilst off sailing and then buying into an annuity seems attractive when the sailing eventually stops, or maybe that should be if. Lots of ifs, buts and many many scenarios however the scenario of having a big income at 65 but being too knackered to do anything with it is distinctly unattractive. Ho hum.

Vessel Name: Pipedream II
Vessel Make/Model: Beneteau First 345
Hailing Port: Portsmouth Harbour
Crew: Alan, Zoe and the boys
About: Scurvy ridden, good for nothing, over fed, over praised, over acknowledged and rubbish. But they make nice tea.
Extra: Life changes, and so do plans. Recent years have meant some very big changes for me personally, and to sailing plans too. But ..... happiness now has a true depth, and without that .... then what is the point !!.
