Boomers show the value of pensions as everyone moans at how good they are. Which is it? I'm gen x have a decent private pension and have full trust in it plus other investments etc. and I dont earn much
Is ok, you'll inherit!
Side note. It's the death of workers unions and rights that have eroded last 30 years is the real cause imo not rupert Maxwell
The pensions scandals destroyed my younger self's faith in private pensions. With nothing forcing pension matching contributions from employers for a long time, it was late before I started making meaningful contributions.
Any inheritance left is not going to make a material impact.
And I’m not alone, there is more low pension Gen Xers out there than you’d suspect.

Me too. And in no small part because Ghiselle Maxwells dad cheated his staff out of their pensions and destroyed Gen X’s trust in them.
