    Isn't it interesting that no-one who invests in property, whether BTL or home ownership, disregards a paper profit when their house price increases?

    I work part time for Asda, and contribute 2% to the pension fund at work that they also match.  Reading other posts, it looks like I need some advise on the best way to increase my pension fund so that I have about 500 to 900 pounds per month once past the age of 65. (in todays money terms)

    Find out how much you can increase your contributions to and up to what level Asda will match it (ie you pay 5% they pay 5%) and go for that level of contribution.

    That may be worth doing as Asda are effectively giving you free money with there match in contributions.
