I would have to question that figure although there are a lot of other factors. How much is the current fund worth? you have paid in over £12k but what has been the growth? - have you checked this against annuity rates.
Is that £40 you are paying or £40 going in? It makes a difference based on your tax rate.
You will need to seek independent advice at retirement but I would keep paying but put in even more.0 -
