Discover why so many over 55s are taking pension tax-free cash right now

and what would you do with your pension savings?
Thanks to pension freedoms, those turning 55 have more flexibility with their pensions now than ever before. For this reason, many are choosing to withdraw some money from their pension early.
Taking pension money early is not right for everyone as it will leave you worse off in retirement. That’s why it makes sense to get help from a regulated specialist.

So, what are people using their pension tax-free cash for?

Based on our experiences, these are some of the most common reasons for using pension tax-free cash:
Tackling debt
Helping their children
with a wedding or
house deposit
Making important
home improvements

Purchasing a car and other important general living costs

From 55, with an eligible scheme, you can withdraw as much money as you like from your pension, with the first 25% being tax free. Anything else you withdraw past this allowance is taxable as income at your marginal tax rate. Many people choose to only withdraw up to the tax-free allowance to avoid potential hefty tax bills.
