I'm lurking again, not popping on to offer car-related advice this time, what do you guys think about pensions? I pay £85 per month into company pension before tax, but i'm only 25. Should I stop this temporarily and put it towards a credit card?
Any advice would be good! Thanks.
Now that really depends on a few factors - whats the CC APR and amount owing? How much is your company contributing to the pension, how long have you been paying it and do you have other expenses you can be rid of first to free up money?0 -

Spud - the trainline is rubbish and it charges you a booking fee - most train booking websites run off it - Eastcoast.com does not and has a cheap fare finder button once you've entered your journey details to find the best fares

It was hard...not used to doing that, but feel good...
had to laugh though, not been the gym at that time before, I was in the ladies only gym cos the other two were full and I was next to two young girls in full make up walking on the treadmill, not sweating in the slightest.
Then on the cross trainer another girl was reading a book:eek:
Me, sweating like a pig in the corner felt really out of place.:rotfl:Quality is doing something right when no one is looking - Henry Ford
