I'm 66 and run marathons in under 4 hours. Didn't realise in 9 months I'd be fecked. Thanks skip.

Saving money until you're 67, practically old as f*ck, so you can pay care home costs.. 67 is when your body totally crumbles.. cash out at 55 and go on a world cruise or something, because the grim reaper (actually an alien) is sharping his sword when 67 approaches, he's rubbing his hands

Thanks Skip. I'm 69 and can still walk up the steps of the East Stand, and lift my pint of Guinness in the Mel Nurse Bar, so not completely decrepid yet

While others are at it, I'll be 73 in a few weeks time and I still play football every Friday evening and it's not walking football or 5-a-side, it's football. Thanks Skip.

It goes out of my salary every month

Is there anything else I can do, other than increase the %?

It depends on whether you are prepared to tie your money up until you are 55 (or older), or want the money accessible at any point in time.

£250 a month into a straightforward tracker (such as S&P) could turn your £60k investment into £150k twenty years later. Yes the market goes up and down, but it’s never stayed down.
