    I’d say you have started Ok, better and earlier than me. If you keep increasing contributions as your wages rise and reviewing where you are at periodically. 2 things to consider are what you are invested in I think the Nest Default is possibly a bit conservative for a 30 year plus investment window. Then there are the fees, these make a big difference in performance over the years Nest does not seem excessive but you might do better elsewhere.
  • Thanks @MX5huggy, I will need to look at wether it's set to default or higher risk. Good point re checking periodically as well.
