1. Prepare for Retirement
The majority of workers should already be paying into a company pension thanks to the government’s workplace pension scheme. However, some people will be worried that this won’t be enough to live off comfortably when it comes to giving up work.
For this reason it is worth seeking out a wealth advisor to create a plan for saving towards retirement. They will look at your current financial situation and work out what will be required to live the same life you have now for (hopefully) another 20+ years when you won’t be working.
