Will you be able to make ends meet with your statutory pension for the self-employed?
The answer is simple: no. Because the pension you’ll get from the government is (a lot) lower than your current income. So it won’t be enough for you to maintain your lifestyle. But how wide will the gap be in your case? Start by asking yourself how much your statutory pension will be and how much you think you’ll need. Only then can you begin to prepare... in your own personal way!
How do you go about building a supplementary pension?
Anyone dreaming of a long and happy life would do best to have a supplementary pension. There are plenty of options, too: a Free Supplementary Pension for the Self-Employed (VAPZ), an Individual Pension Commitment (IPT), a Pension Agreement for the Self-Employed (POZ) or a Group Insurance policy for company directors. There are also various ways of ‘saving for retirement’, such as a life insurance policy.
