Back along I could have retired, or at least got my state pension (not the same thing), in one year's time. Now I have to wait five years, two months and seventeen days. Ah well. Wouldn't want anyone to think I was getting old.
Since discovering self employment in an area I enjoy I've given up all thoughts of ever retiring. It's like self-financed retirement with a positive cash flow hobby.
Lucky you, I have to wait even longer.
ReplyDeleteI know, me too. Worse, they upped it by an extra year not long ago. I have no confidence I'll ever receive the damn thing.
ReplyDeleteBut Z, you're only a month younger than me!
ReplyDeleteAt the moment I will be 66, I expect by the time I get there they will have increased it again....

ReplyDeleteIrritating isn't it?
