Now if he goes to Deepcut, I could visit him. He'd like that.

Dogshit.

 

You will get a damned site more than 11% back, a bit of it made up from investing your contributions and the rest from the likes of me.

 

My pension payments are not invested. This is due to mismanagement of the capital. Nowadays what gets paid in just goes straight out to pay the current pensioners.

As regards me getting more back than the 11%/ month I'm paying in, let's be honest, if I paid the same amount into a savings account I'd be getting more back. The only bit of your money I'll ever see is possibly a bail-out from the Govt. when the fire service pension scheme goes belly up. Rather me get it than waste a few million quid on one or two extra bombs to Iraq!

Many other public sector workers get a non-contributary pension. I'd like one of those please.

Deepcut my arse.

 

Come to think of it the only poster who could visit me is bolton in bedford. That's where I had to get the train to for my last selection where a minibus whisked us off into the sticks. Christ, what an armpit. Can't wait for nights out round there, I'm positively moist at the prospect.

Come on micky, if you are on say ??30k as a firebobby (one of he few public sector jobs I actually have respect for I might add), we both know your pension at the end of it will be a lot more than ??3300 per year.

 

??30k???? I dream about ??30k!

 

What I was saying about the investing is, in the early days of the Fire Service Pension Scheme, retired Firefighters had a fairly low retirement age but also had a fairly low mortality age. Had the poweres-that-be invested all the pension income then instead of 'borrowing' it to pay off capital expenditure, we wouldn't be in the mess we're in now.

In 1974 the UK Fire Service recruited heavily. It doesn't take a brainbox to work out that, thirty years later the pension scheme would be crippled by this massive intake all retiring at the same time, does it?

Another disparity between firefighters and other public service workers is that, while the Govt. have attacked their pension schemes as well, they have actually ringfenced existing workers. i.e. the pension scheme you joined will be the one you retire with. New recruits will be offered a different one. With the Fire Service, however, the scheme I joined is to be altered.

Start looking forwards to the next strike. This thime though there'll not be enough armed service personnel to crew the fire engines. . .oh, that's another Govt. run department f??cked as well!

Another disparity between firefighters and other public service workers is that some of them do a bit of graft, whereas we spend most of our time eating pasties and reading porn mags, that's when we're not going on courses to be taught how to sit in a chair properly that is. Have you heard about that mate of Maggie's who gets NINETY days off this year? How mnay of them he plans to spend moonlighting as a taxi driver I'm not sure.

 

:D
