    Congratulations. Welcome to the club.

    Your mission, if you choose to accept it, is to get more than your money's worth from your pension(s).

    Good Luck.

    Can't recommend it highly enough. Do it as soon as it's possible indifferent of age...a healthy dose of part time at the end of ya working life also helps..
