    thanks again!

    My employer currently pays 1% of my gross salary, it will be 2% in october and 3% soon after. I decided that a sacrifice of 10% is ok to start with, as it is before taxes and after taxes is not too bad. According some salary calculator I should end up with 18k at year, including the state pension, without taking in consideration investment growth. It's not a lot, but I consider the pension an emergency fund (beside I will probably retire in my home town back in Sicily)

    P.S.: I guess "sacrifice" is the extra salary I can put it for the pension, right?
