    Magmaman, can I ask what did you decide to do with your inheritance.
    You can ask, but he hasn't been back here since he posted his question in July 2013.

    It's the same old problem. People go out of their way to help and then are not courteous enough to inform the board of the outcome which often can help others.
    Take my advice at your peril.

    With all due respect, this is simply wrong.

    The respect due is none whatsoever.

    And I would still stand by original statement re contributing to a pension.

    and I stand by my statement you are wrong. There is every reason to invest in a pension.

    Rather than getting into insults, can you please explain your rationale and reasoning? It's all very well making a statement but doesn't help anyone without anything to back it up.

    Why is a pension not a good idea in your view?
    Remember the saying: if it looks too good to be true it almost certainly is.
