I think the point is Pete, decisions about things like lump sums can almost immediately turn about to be the wrong ones due to ensuing events.

Yep one can only make good decisions based on the information at the timeI think the point is Pete, decisions about things like lump sums can almost immediately turn about to be the wrong ones due to ensuing events.
I haven't got £268K in my pension in total let alone enough in there to be able to take £268K out of it!Was checking my pension and had no idea I could get tax free lump sum up to £268k
One of my options obviously wouldn’t as intend to live for a few years
US President Donald Trump says he has signed a full and unconditional pardon for Ross Ulbricht, who operated Silk Road, the dark web marketplace where illegal drugs were sold.
Ulbricht was convicted in 2015 in New York in a narcotics and money laundering conspiracy and sentenced to life in prison.
Silk Road, which was shut down in 2013 after police arrested Ulbricht, sold illegal drugs using Bitcoin, as well as hacking equipment and stolen passports.
Ulbricht was found guilty of charges including conspiracy to commit drug trafficking, money laundering and computer hacking.
During his trial, prosecutors said Ulbricht's website, hosted on the hidden "dark web", sold more than $200m (£131m) worth of drugs anonymously.
Prosecutors said he also solicited six murders-for-hire, including one against a former Silk Road employee, though they said no evidence existed that any killings were actually carried out.
Yep I’m extremely lucky to be in this position - I was utterly shocked and I’m sorry if it came across as showing off it wasn’t what I meantI haven't got £268K in my pension in total let alone enough in there to be able to take £268K out of it!

Didn't come off as showing off at all. But the next round is on you PeteYep I’m extremely lucky to be in this position - I was utterly shocked and I’m sorry if it came across as showing off it wasn’t what I meant
Wasn't that expensive tax wise ?...lump sum apartI would take it - the age is being extended and the government will probably extend again and there is a suspicion they will reduce the tax free threshold. I had £240k and I have taken it all

It’s what I was wondering tooI would take it - the age is being extended and the government will probably extend again and there is a suspicion they will reduce the tax free threshold. I had £240k and I have taken it all
No money three kids going through uni one after the other has done for meDidn't come off as showing off at all. But the next round is on you Pete
They wouldn’t mind they believe in good governance lolThe other thing of course this government has done is stop discretionary trusts in pension and applied IHT to the value. This would effectively mean your children are likely to be taxed at 90% on it when they come to benefit.
You are being dogmatic.
How many years reduction I guess depends on whether there is an annual inflation linked increase.Yep one can only make good decisions based on the information at the time
interestnhly that particular decision reduced by annual income by about 10k which is 26 years isn’t it
Will I live to 86!! Good question

Stop the annual £10 Christmas bonus. What a waste of time and money.Im being realistic. If it’s not in the manifesto it’s not a promise. Starmer was wrong to make it sound like he thought it was an injustice but maybe he’s going off what he was told by campaign groups and not the facts, the fact is he didn’t promise compo for them so didn’t break a promise by not giving it.
The country is on its arse and a large part of that is the last 20 years politicians have given in to every demand from pensioners as a group. I probably do know better off pensioners but that’s the point, they don’t need free cash. I have sympathy for those that are just above a cut off as I do for working age people just above a benefits cut off but that’s life, there’s always someone just above any cut off.
So less than 20 years then. Also would need to take in to account what you have done with the money. Invest and become a capitalist or squander it.There is
This is nuts, why on earth would you pardon someone like this?
Trump pardons Silk Road creator Ross Ulbricht
Trump said he had called Ulbricht's mother to let her know he had granted her son a full pardon.www.bbc.co.uk
Didn’t Labour MPs do similar a few years ago?And labelling the people that convicted him as 'scum' is quite something.

No, not such a specific group as state prosecutors. It was limited to Tories, wasn‘t it?Did Labour MPs label state prosecutors as scum?
I don't believe they did Malc, no.

Hence my use of the word “ similar“ and not the word “ same”.
Hopefully signing some legislation to crush the UK economy, right?Morning.

Squander and buy a property mayveSo less than 20 years then. Also would need to take in to account what you have done with the money. Invest and become a capitalist or squander it.
I just went outside and it’s still thereNot necessary, Starmer's already done that.
No, but the Irish tax avoidance economy is shaking like a shitting dog.Hopefully signing some legislation to crush the UK economy, right?
You mean Google is about to get a tax cut in its home market?No, but the Irish tax avoidance economy is shaking like a shitting dog.
It’s a worldwide market right?You mean Google is about to get a tax cut in its home market?
really? Not what the actual economic indicators and forecasts say but crack onNot necessary, Starmer's already done that.
Still talking the biggest load of shite on this forumIt’s a worldwide market right?
Do Google pay a fair amount of UK tax for their UK advertising operations? Is Ireland used as a tax haven?
Once you answer those two very simple questions you will be on the path to logical thinking.
Be better.

The answers are ‘probably not’ and ‘yes’ respectively. Trump’s plan to address the latter is to cut corporate taxes in the United States accordingly, which would be a huge boon to Google.It’s a worldwide market right?
