I wondered that …

Having paid into a pension with Equitable Life for many years (I’m sure you all know what happened to them) I am grateful for savings and investments.

Why would anyone need a new kitchen or bathroom every 10/15 years?

We are near the third, and have managed very well so far.

I'm below the first one at the moment. I exist on a small teacher's pension. It was manageable until last year and the cost of living rise. I need a new shower and that's wiped out my money for a few months.

Well I’m in between the first and second one but nearer the first. I’m doing ok.

Pedants please don’t jump on me!! can’t change it now and in the scheme of things doesn’t bother me that much..

Well I’m in the first bracket, (and that’s only because I work part time, 18 hours a week without that I would be much, much worse off )hope you’re better off than me..🤷‍♀️
