A model for us all
Article Abstract:
It is vital to start saving into a pension scheme from an early age if a reasonable income in retirement is to be guaranteed. Contribution levels rise sharply if an individual delays starting a pension, and those who start very late may find it almost impossible to build up a large enough pension to purchase the income they require in retirement. Starting early is particularly important for women, who need to save more in their pension plans than men.
