STRAIGHT TALK
A FEW months ago I had to undergo a financial overhaul.
This was particularly unpleasant because I only got a CSE in maths and numbers frighten me. Insurance, tax, pensions, ISAs - you may as well try to teach me ancient Greek than get me to understand any of that.

Which is why I found myself in the office of a financial adviser being asked questions about my retirement.
Now, I'm no spring chicken (see photo above) but neither am I old enough to be staring down the barrel of a bus pass. Daytime classes in crochet are still some way off for me. Dismayed, I looked at this sharp-suited, yet-to-turn 40 chap with a MacBook and an air of numerical confidence, and wondered whether I appeared to him as a retiree-inwaiting.
