because my dad told me i should always take up the maximum pension thingy offered
so i just did as i was told.

i don't expect to get a state pension by our generation, i'm living in my pension, basically. done the light fittings, now i just need new carpets, new curtains and new white goods. sigh.

depends how much your company are contributing I guess.
Cos that's free money. plus pensions are more or less tax exempt.

But, yeah, I'm with you. I chuck all my spare cash at property.
