FAO people who have emmigrated

I imagine most people have a private pension and will draw on the state pension of the country that they have lived and paid tax in.

Taking all the money out of the country to give to foreign businesses eh? How very patriotic ..
Because patriotism will feed you?
Much the same as anyone who hasn't emigrated... it's not like anyone of our generation can rely on a state pension so i plan to save and invest until retirement, where I can release assets to open up cashflow.

What a stupid reply, then again, this is GD after all.
Personally I have money saved up already along with two private pensions I pay into. I also don't have any mortgage debt and is partner in three properties (two paid in full) with my brother which all should be enough to cover my retirement.

Meh, if you're smart enough to make it financially, then by and large you're smart enough to shift your money out of this country.
Edit - actually I think I know who you're referring to.

Which, if he notices, will result in ban hammer action no doubt.
I wouldn't mind going over and living in Holland. Relaxed people who don't take life too seriously. Plus, their football team can actually score a goal at international level.
It's a tempting decision
Its were I plan to move when I have the money, learning Dutch and German in the meantime
I find people that live abroad or at least spend some time living abroad, FAR more dynamic and interesting than people that rarely wanders out of the 2 mile radius they were born and spent their lives in. Yes, broad generalisation, but accurate in the majority of cases.

But I'm spreading the British seed 1/2 the way around the world, I think that is patriotic
OT: I'll save, I guess, I haven't really put much thought into it, as I've been more preoccupied with immigration/emigration.

The winking smiley doesn't stop this from being an asinine comment.
Most of the ex-pats I know have kept a public/private pension scheme in the UK, started a public/private scheme here, as well as the normal investments, savings etc. It's no different.
i'm paying 13% of my salary (forced) into a public pension fund which I can only dream will pay out... depending on the whims of the MEPs in charge at the time might as well put 350 euro on the lottery each week works out the same cept I don't have a choice.
The private pension schemes over here as in the UK are based on income tax deductions but since I don't pay national income tax they are more or less useless for me....
