LJ - so at what time scale, and what percentage slashing of my pension should I start getting upset about? And what if in 6 years time we have our pensions cut again?
I've got 12 years left to my 55, and I'm most certainly not a Wg Cdr that'll be picking up the kind of figures stated up there. I do however, have 2 teenage children that will hopefully be going to University/ buying cars/ buying flats etc and I'd worked out how much I'd be able to help them (not to mention keeping Mrs B in the manner.....) based upon what I'd signed up to receive.
It appears that through not fault of my own I've now lost a sizeable chunk of what I expected, and have even lost out further purely because I had the audacity to agree to a pension that was offered to me.
I don't want to come across as a sulky child, but it really is not fair.
