I got offered PA around the same time as the decision had to be made. Yes, if I leave at 55, the new scheme is tons better. However, not wanting to commit 100% to a 55 or nothing option, I stayed on the 75 scheme. If I do end up staying, well it's one of those things and I'll be worse off. Somehow, I doubt it.
Life is full of decisions and you won't get all of them correct. Those of you offered PA but still under the old scheme, well you can still leave or you stay and have a job until you're 55. Maybe, to make up the shortfall, you could invest in property or something? It's not so bad, really, is it, that it's driven guys to PVR?
