The issues you have, if you took that say, 650k out in 2007, we had a bull market for 10 yrs or so, and you would have been getting about 50k a Yr in interest on your fund, which is great.I deliberately didn't mention the CETV amounts to see if someone would come up with a rough figure, mainly because I couldn't believe a shopfloor worker in a manufacturing company could achieve such a pot, and you are pretty damn close. Totally agree with the do you like risk comment. I'm not risk averse but would take the DB. By the way the figures aren't mine they're from a mate who works at the unmentioned company. If I was able to get that I'd be away at 55 which incidentally is 2 years today. So happy birthday to me
However if you took it out last year, your 650 k now would be worth about 450k.
