Retire At 60

Post by Senior Service »

Does any one know what will happen to my shares if I retire in 2 years when I am 60?

Of course I am assuming I can manage another 2 years!

It's good to get these types of threads, the ridiculous my manager said bollox, so we can reassure ourselves that while the world is falling apart, Royal Mail managers are still being the low-life C***S they have always been.

The daily grind of having to argue your case with an intellectual pigmy of a line manager is physically and emotionally draining.

Thanks, I saw that in the booklet they sent out but it does not specify a minimum age. So do you have to work until you are 66 or can you retire any time after 60.

Of course it also leads to the question can you retire at 55 say?

I'm not sure there is such thing as retiring these days, it's more a case of resigning and taking your pension. Your point is something that really needs to be clarified by RM as the info we recieved isn't clear.

That is so true. I think very harsh though but technicalities always come up in today's life.
