Episode 14: Am I too young to start a pension?

We get it. Pensions are confusing, and it’s all too tempting to put them off until later. But as Dan and Charlene explain, the earlier you get started, the more money you can put away, and the longer you can compound your investments over time. And don’t forget about the tax incentives certain pension accounts offer, such as a self-invested personal pension (SIPP). So, what’s a good age to start a pension? Learn how long-term saving – little and often – might be the way forward.
