Thanks, food for thought. My work pension is actually a DB one, and under its terms I'm obliged to take some lump sum, but I can select the amount within certain parameters, which then dictates my monthly pension. Doing this might force my choices a bit. Finances are so complex!TheAble said:Taken purely in isolation it's not a bad proposition. One thing to bear in mind though is that you may be placing restrictions on your retirement/pension options i.e. you may be dependent on taking the lump sum rather than staying invested. Not that you'd necessarily want to stay invested but it's always a plus to have the option.0
