Staggered retirement is becoming an increasingly popular option for people who aren't quite ready to leave the world of work, or who may not yet be in a position to do so. But how can we ensure we make the most of this option when the time comes?

In this week's show, Tony discusses staggered retirement, and why it might well be the perfect option for your retirement planning.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

• Flexible working suits many of retirement age, especially if they are caring for others, or have health issues of their own.
• Retirement can often be an unsettling period. After working for the majority of our lives in a full time capacity, many suffer emotionally at suddenly removing this large component of their lives.
• Of retirees polled, 12% rely on income from property investments made in life, meaning that it is a large portion of much retirement income.

BEST MOMENTS

‘For many people of retirement age, continuing to work, at least on a part-time basis, is an option they are now considering'

‘It's important that pensions are required to last as long as possible'

‘It's really important to make sure that pensions work past retirement age'
