How Big Should My Pension Pot Be?

June 30, 2025

Paddy Delaney

This week I flashback to a podcast from 2021! While it is a few years old its a common and important question.

Key takeaways

  • How big your pension should be when you start drawing down income
  • How big your pension should be at various stages of your life
  • What you can do if it's not as big as you would like it to be!
  • How to live 14.9% longer!

I hope it helps!
