Hi all,
I have searched on here and done some research prior to this post, your opinions and experiences would be greatly appreciated:
I am mid 30's and own my house (self built), and am employed. I'd like to put myself in a position to retire as early as possible (who doesn't). I thought the following 2 investment options seemed prudent?
I am keen with the idea of starting a FTSE tracker ISA as it seems a good, tax free investment that has the potential to outperform most savings accounts over a longer term. Hargreaves & Lansdown seem to be highly recommended on previous posts...
I am also looking at starting a pension - the government are offering tax relief for those who are starting pensions, in so much that they would receive a 25% contribution on top of my monthly payment (I'm not sure what figure this is this is capped at). This seems to be an attractive option.
I am not interested in buying another property to let as I don't want the commitment or hassle.
