Hi,
I have a managed pension account that will mature next year. It will be worth about GBP 70,000. My question is: what's the best thing to do with it?
My current situation:
Canadian expat with family (wife (British) + 2 kids) living in Malaysia.
No credit card debt; no car loans, no personal loans. Our employer pays our rent.
We have an apartment in the UK (mortgage free - worth about GBP 200,000.) It is currently rented.
We have a house in the UK (worth GBP 300,000 with 140,000 left on the mortgage.) It is also currently rented.
We pay into a pension fund here in Malaysia (we contribute 8% of our salary at the moment and our employer contribute 12%.)
Because we have lived overseas for so long, we don't have any government pensions in Canada or the UK.
Our oldest son will be university age in 5 years.
So, what to do with this money? Put it on the house mortgage? Buy another property? Any advice would be welcome!
Thanks,
Sean
