Good morning,
I hope you’re doing well. I wanted to share something important about your pension that’s been on my mind. Did you know relying on just the State Pension (if you qualify) gives you only about £11.5k a year in retirement, while a comfortable retirement needs around £43k? That gap is huge. And for women, pension savings can end up ~40% lower than men’s on average, a shocking disadvantage we need to tackle. 😟
That’s why I am launching the Girl Money Geeks Masterclass series. Kicking off tomorrow [10th April at 1:00 PM BST] with the first Retirement Planning online Masterclass. We will explore everything Pensions and Retirement planning. And what you can do to get ahead (so you can keep more of your money). It’s a lot, but I promise we break it down in plain English – no jargon, no fluff.
I’ll be joined by Susan Hope, a Chartered Financial Planner at Scottish Widows (she’s brilliant!). We’ll dive deeper into making your retirement plan strong and secure. Think of it as your friendly guide to understanding pensions as an investment tailored for us women who often get left behind by traditional finance systems. We’ll demystify all those pension terms and focus on actionable steps you can take right now to bridge that gap and take back control of your financial future.
What you’ll learn in the masterclass:
Pension Savvy Strategies – Simple ways to boost savings, even with career breaks.
State Pension Know-How – Understand how much you'll need and key tax considerations.
Financial Confidence – Overcome the fear of not having enough saved and take control of your future.
…and plenty more, all in a welcoming, interactive, no-judgement space. (Feel free to bring any questions – we’re keeping it conversational and helpful.)
I would love for you to attend this masterclass. It’s completely free and geared toward helping you feel confident about your retirement planning. Click here to register.
Once you register, we’ll send you the details so you can attend online. Even if you’re not 100% sure you can make it live, go ahead and sign up – I might be able to send a replay to those registered. 😉
I’m really excited to create a supportive community around this. Planning for retirement can feel intimidating, but you don’t have to figure it out alone. This session will be friendly, informative, and truly empowering.
I hope to see you on April 10th! Let’s get confident about our pensions and make sure our future selves are taken care of.
Thank you for reading and watching the video.
Let me know what you think about it, does any of it surprise you? Reply and tell me, I’d love to hear your thoughts or questions.
Until next time, take care of yourself and your money!
Warmly,
Tynah
