Until you get there? When the kids have moved away, the house is paid for and the LH captaincy provide the opportunity to travel the world with the wife and enjoy the sights and sounds?

Many people have their retirement tied into pensions, mortgage payments and school fees. The rubbish that Gordo Brown has caused with his stealth raids on private pension funds has thrown that to the dogs.

As to greed, the current NAPs pension holders are having to double their personal pension payments AND work until 60/65 to achieve a pension slightly less than or, at the best, equal to their original pension deal. Greed? I think not. If you wish to look at greed within pensions look at the gilt edged, final salary pension of our dear New Labour MP's. Which, ironically, was the very first policy passed by Cronie Blairs New Labour upon taking power.

I am sure you will be so magnanimous when it's your turn.
