According to some doom mongering websites, there will eventually be no state pension as it will be unaffordable, so the answer maybe never.

this is one of them

It's simple mathematics Eddie - the country is bust - and still we are letting EE peasants in.

I reckon never.
I have farmer neighbours in their eighties still toiling at the silage face.

They are alive and enjoy being alive. That's why they do it /.
The ones who stopped toiling at retirement age-- are pushing up daisies now.

I'd bet he still kept active though . Despite what he told you .

I expect I will be working at 70+, the pension system was never designed for people to live on it for decades.

Your forgetting the None EE peasants and other folks who are more of a cancer than the EE. Dont want to mention who they are otherwise ill be blasted for being a racist because thats what they do best. Oh and they build strange buildings which are not architectually native to our country.

Hmm I retire aged 66. The bas***ds. Grrrrrrr.

Joe-90 is a clued up sorta guy - and I reckon that the pension will be means tested within 10 years. The money just ain't there. We've all those Roma gypos to house and feed too.

 

[EddieM]

mines 66 too, but i don't think that is realistic.

Me too. It's already gone up from 65. How many times will it go up in the next 20 years?

 

[gregers]

mine,
You'll reach State Pension age on 6 March 2035.

Your State Pension age is 66 years, 5 months, 24 days.

When the country goes bust it's all academic anyway.
