I'm happy to assist if I can.
Just try to have views on the world in 10 year's instead of tomorrow and you'll be fine.
Here in Holland we are obliged to deal with insurance companies for the pension premiums of our salaries to "protect" people from themselves.
This leads to paying premiums to incompetent asset managers and getting back less due to costs and bad investment results.
I'd stay far away from those thief's if I can.....
Yes agreed on the thief/bastards. My pensions in Ireland are worth FAR less than I paid into them...some of them from 15 years ago! It would have been better off sitting in a high interest bank account...at least I would be up something.
I was SHOCKED to hear that you can apply to do it yourself in Ireland. A lot of paperwork involved, I believe. Its like you say, too...10-15 year sort of plays. I can't take the money and put it in my forex account and leverage up 100%+ on the Aussie. THAT, they will NOT allow...and rightfully so, I suppose!
