            STOP saving and putting money aside for a pension. Britain's social welfare/pension system is all a giant Ponzi scheme run by the Govt. which they started in 1945. Wake up - you've been paying huge amounts of NI for decades but will get a piffling £60/week JSA or £90/week pension when you're layed off.
 Now the end game is being played out, remember as soon as you detect a Ponzi scheme the smart move is to run for the exits with your money.
 Spend everything and enjoy yourself, you won't be much worse off than people who have been careful but will now suffer a return of 98% marginal taxation and means testing of everything.0

            Excellent post, Generali, it might be doom but unfortunately it's fact, and better that we all know about it, we might all miss NDG on here, but your contributions are without peer.0
