And good luck to her!
I am guessing though, that Mrs PN has drawn her pension from age 60 and, that she was able to buy her extra years at the very reasonable rates several years ago and, to the earlier 30 qualifying years requirement?
Many Ladies today have seen the pension age rise to 67/68, are faced with much more expensive buy-in rates and must reach 35 qualifying years for full entitlement. On top of all that, I think it will all change again before Mrs OAP or I reach State retirement age....
