Why pensions are like ice cream

Mike LeGassick, Independent Financial Adviser with Manning and Company, explains why the blended approach to retirement income planning could be the best choice.

If you were born around 1960, you will soon be facing a pivotal decision: how will you shape your life over the next 30 years?
First of all think back 30 years, to 1985 – when music came on vinyl or cassette, and the internet hadn’t yet arrived.  Can you think ahead to the year 2045 and imagine what life might be like?  Honestly, can any of us?!
Yet thanks to the new pension freedoms which come into effect in April, that’s exactly what anyone aged 55 or over will have to do.  As never before, your future is in your hands.
