How much should I save?
The earlier you start to save, the more potential your pension savings have to grow. It’s far better to pay a realistic percentage of your earnings into a pension as soon as you start earning, than to suddenly panic when you get to the age of 50 and realise that you will have to pay in hundreds of pounds every month if you want to get a half-decent pension.
