My situation is not typical as I had to take medical retirement after a life changing accident, but I had a public sector pension that I had never really thought about, never expected that I would get anything back from it as my granddad died at 65 and my nana got nothing so I had quite a poor impression of pensions, but mine came through for me. I got a lump sum to pay off my mortgage and a low but secure income for the rest of my life. I bet there are many people like I was who actually have some kind of workplace scheme that they may not be aware of. It can be a real blessing when you need it most to find out that you do.

Also have cash ISA emergency fund no debts.. I started all this in August 15th 2023 and also started paying into work pension.. Started late at 58.. I budget account for everything.. I am waiting to reduce Sim card next.. Not sure what else I can do??? Any other suggestions welcome.. My funds are in Vanguard global all cap index fund.. I also.

Don't go to university and incur huge student loans. Research and look if you can find an apprenticeship training that will train you and pay you during your training and qualifications. If you have to go to university for a specialist training like studying to become a doctor, with God's Matchless help, do you best to work hard and get very top grades and apply for a scholarship from universities and private organisations, and get a part time job at uni. Most of all, Always Keep God Almighty first in all that you do, honour and be grateful to your parents for all the sacrifices that they have made and keep making. Always pray to The Lord Jesus Christ for His help and be very careful to always be grateful to God and give Him all The Thanks And Praise, And It Will Be Well With You, Amen.
