    If they pay a set percentage, I'd be paying naff all into their pension. Set up your own SIPP, keep costs down.

    Apart from the different fund choices, it's the same as your ISA, and about as risky. All we can do is make sensible choices and hope for the best, the rest is in God's hands :)

    Dang. I'll add it to the reading list. Thanks!
    Are you a) an engineer or b) a computer programmer?

    Me, me! *waving flag*

    Awful lot of INFJs here!

    Ah, but we were talking about IN*T*Js, an INFJ computer programmer be rare. In fact, a sane developer is rare :think:

    I can't believe we have 4+ INFJs, I only know 1 in real life bar myself and we don't talk about it (little INFJ joke there) :rotfl:

    I don't know if I'm sane, I clearly can't read.

    In my defense I did have an eye-test today and am slowly but surely creeping towards blindness. My computer screen is currently between 125-150% magnification, how am I meant to hide my screen at work? :rotfl:

    I've had two tests in the past and I'm half Ron Weasley and half Sirius Black :D. But I actually think I'm quite introverted in the true sense of the word. Definitely not an INFP or INTP though so maybe it is right?
    A positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effort

    I know I have been away for a bit but most of the above last few posts were incomprehensible. Off to swot up on Harry Potter and pensions as am clearly very stupid.

    Happy new year,
