Nobody would buy an investment bond like that.


Look up annuity.


An anuuity carries on paying out when you move house for whatever
reason.


So do the fits.
You can sell them to the new owner


Assuming the new owner will pay anything over the otherwise value of
the house.

or rent the roof space using the free
electricity.


How do you rent a roof space that is on a house you have sold?

Annuities don't require massive tax payer funded subsidies.


No? they need pension credits the way things are.


The people needing pension credits are generally the ones who have no
other pension provision, i.e. the ones with no annuities.

Labour stole a lot of cash from funds and now tax payers will


The effect was nothing like as bad as some people would have you
believe and anyone who has not adjusted their pension strategy in the
meantime is a blinkered fool who should be thrown in the poor house of
neccessary.
