Even more bad Pension news -Pension pots evaporate as annuity rates fall

Thousands of pensioners across the country have little hope of experiencing the
retirement lifestyle they would have wished for due to low annuity rates. 

Any chance of a comfortable pension pot may have crumbled as annuity rates fall and high inflation eats away at what little is left. 

UK adults are living longer, working less and spending more. According to the Office for National statistics, two thirds of men and three quarters of women now reach the age of 75. With this in mind, it can be hard to see a viable way of planning for your future financially, especially in such a fragile economy.

Britain may be on the brink of another recession and there is not much that those edging towards retirement can do personally about the low interest rates and high inflation. However, there are some forms of financial protection against sudden falls in the value of investment funds. 

The amount of annual pension someone can buy with their savings has been falling for some time and there is little sign of improvement, so is now a good time to take out a pension?
