On 6th April 2010 they raised the bar from 50 to 55; can you imagine how that feels when you're just two years away! Cry

I retired at 55 with no regrets. As long as you're are financially secure go for it. Life's too short.

Good Luck whatever you decide.Happy

I don't think I'll ever retire. Work isn't really work if it's what you do because you enjoy it.

Or those that have money tied up in old defined benefit schemes. Future generations will never see the likes of those again.

If you don't like your job retire....if you do carry on.

After the honeymoon period people who have worked all their life need something more than a hobby.
