Real lives, real decisions

Explore how four different people used financial advice to make life's biggest decisions.

The later-life planner

Rose hopes to ensure a comfortable post-retirement future, and so needs a clearer idea as to the size of her pension

‘I’m looking to think about the next few years, and how I might «taper» my life towards retirement — rather than just sort of stop! Working for myself, I’m hoping there’s that opportunity to do a bit less while still keeping myself busy. I know there’s more flexibility around retirement now, and I realise that it’s time I started thinking about my choices. But I don’t know if it’s better to plan ahead first, or start by sorting out my finances — so I hope Susan can give me some guidance.’
