I know this q has been asked a lot but here are my particular circumstances.
A company I worked for for 15 years was wound down and the defined benefit pension scheme I was part of wound down with it. The transfer value of my pension seems okay. Now the trustees are finalising where the ex-employees money is going and I have to decide what to do with my pension.
I went back to college, did a HDip and hope to get an incremental post in my school in a couple of years - that'll mean that I'll start a new pension.
In the meantime I have a few years without a pension - not a big deal I think.
If I transfer my money into a new PRSA can I keep this and contribute to it even when I am being paid by the dept of education in future? I mention that I'm a teacher in the Title of this post, because I've heard that this makes a difference.
Is a pension bond a dead loss or is it a reasonable investment? Are there any better performing bonds out there?
