BBC Radio 4 - You and Yours, Call You and Yours: Can you afford to pay into a pension?

Join Winifred Robinson on Call You and Yours where we are asking: Can you afford to pay into a pension?

On this week's Call You and Yours we are asking: Can you afford to pay into a pension? 

The amount of money you need to have a "comfortable" retirement has gone up. That's according to new research from the Pensions and Life Savings Association. 

You now need £37,300 a year for a “comfortable” retirement. That's an increase of 11% in the last year. And three quarters of people don't think they have enough in their pension pots to retire according to a survey by wealth management firm RBC Brewin Dolphin.

So are you about to retire and are worried your pension won't go far enough? Are you having to work longer or two jobs to top-up your pot? 

Or are you a young person just starting out in working life - can you afford to pay into a pension right now? We really want to hear from you. 
 
Email us now: youandyours@bbc.co.uk and do leave us your phone number so we can call you back.

And from 11am on Tuesday the 28th March you can call us on 03700 100 444.
