Pension advice

Agree with tudders somewhat, maybe better places to put the money, but I am a pensions/investments adviser (whole of market) and have my diploma for giving advice (which basically means a few exams and the FSA believe I am competent). Anyway, need a hand, let me know, happy to have a chat and point you in right direction!

        But would it only make sense doing this with a company where I know I will be for a while? (n/m) (General Chat) - bgc, Aug 1, 21:45:40
        
        No. If they contribute, join it. If they don't, use Cash ISAs to build some money up. (General Chat) - tudders, Aug 1, 22:01:24
        
        Yep. Even if you leave the company, you can either leave it with them (General Chat) - Yellalee, Aug 1, 22:10:16
        
        If you are 24 you have a long time to pay into it, so you can afford to go for more risk (General Chat) - Astroturf, Aug 1, 22:19:17
