It can be.
What kind of pension is it? If final salary then you would need to compare both schemes.
If it's a money purchase scheme - ie Personal Pension, Stakeholder - what is the current value and how many years would it buy in the firefighters' scheme?0 -
they say its @ 45k and would buy 6 years of pension.
Does that make any sense?0
