A pension of gross £16692 does not give an income of £1,500 per month - it gives you £1,400 : and then you will pay tax on it - you will finish up with about £1200 per calendar month. So looks like you are 300 quid a month short already I suggest you do your calculations again. |

Even so, £2515 a month is a pretty ood income in retirement if the mortgage is paid off and there are no housing costs other than maintenance and insurance. But of course you have to find a new job paying you 18,000 pounds a year net : that'll be about £23,000. True. My estimate above is based on £1500 a month (£18,000 a year) gross, not net. Have you accepted one of the many offers made to you at that salary yet? A pension of gross £16692 does not give an income of £1,500 per month - it gives you £1,400 : and then you will pay tax on it - you will finish up with about £1200 per calendar month. If the only income were £16692 pension, that would attract income tax of about £1140, reducing the income to about £1295 a month. It really isn't easy for someone who has earned somewhere around the national average wage to get as much as £3,000 a month in retirement. But then, if they have managed their finances reasonably wisely during their working years (and crucially, have no housing debt and maybe something in the second half of five figures in rainy day savings), £2,000 a month works very well. Even £1500 a month works well, since it is more than the averag working Joe has to spend after meeting today's horrific mortgage payments. So looks like you are 300 quid a month short already I suggest you do your calculations again. |
