Comments on: Fair Pensions for All – Part Three http://www.cheriesplace.me.uk/blog/index.php/2011/11/28/fair-pensions-for-all-part-three/ Random thoughts and photos of my journey through life… Mon, 13 Apr 2026 01:04:34 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.9.2 hourly 1 By: CherryPie http://www.cheriesplace.me.uk/blog/index.php/2011/11/28/fair-pensions-for-all-part-three/comment-page-1/#comment-15410 CherryPie Tue, 29 Nov 2011 18:30:52 +0000 http://www.cheriesplace.me.uk/blog/?p=7099#comment-15410 Thanks for the links, I will have a look at those in detail when I have more time. We have what is called a state pension which is in addition to either a private sector or public sector pension. On it's own it is not enough and people can get means tested for top ups, if they don't have any other pension incomes. You will see more on the state pension in part four. So yes, more than one retirement check can be drawn. Thanks for the links, I will have a look at those in detail when I have more time.

Even if here a company or you invest into a private retirement. I don't know any way of total getting out of pay in to the social security fund. Sure there people over here draws off more then one retirement funds. But usual social security is our higher paying but not always. Those who invested in a private retirement fund can and is eligible to draw form social security. Even if the private fund lost money. There been employers fee and far between taken out the payment of social security and never send it in. In short of it...it wasn't a pretty sight. But a lot of those who invested in private companies for there retirement sure got took when the banking clasp. Here is a little trivia...Back in the 1920's pre great depression area. Here in United States they tried to start up private retirement funds and when market crash in 1929 it went wayside with the crash. Women in the private sector are likely to be in a far worse state than men especially retail, catering and cleaning roles) come with no pension provision at all. See here they would pay into our social security fund. Usual these jobs are low pay and still you have to pay your 8% into social security. Working with these job for years your social security benefit wouldn't be that much once you retire. Usual these place don't offer a private or a company retirement plan. But we here in United States those who are teachers, firefighters, or police officer. Does have a government pension other then our social security. But they can draw both once they become of retirement age. So I guess we have three retirement programs here. Social Security which everyone pays in, the private ones, and those who work directly for our government. I'm leaving you two links that explain our social security. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Social_Security_%28United_States%29 http://www.ssa.gov/ So can a person in England draw more then one retirement check from more then one source?
