Just before Christmas I was having a conversation about whether our industry had improved as far as gender inequality was concerned. The comment was made. Whilst ‘we’ may consider that gender…

![[AD] I have to look at this photo and smile. Every week I have to remind myself why I work away. Being responsible for our family finances can get so stressful. Taking the decision to have a SAHD has meant it can all feel like it’s on me. And so, when I’m prepared to think about the future, it can get scary. Fortunately my dad encouraged me to start contributing to a pension when I got my first job at 16, and I’m hoping that I am saving enough to take care of me and my family. And then when I get stressed, I wonder whether I’m saving enough. Especially as most days I can't even get as far as thinking about these three in secondary school, let alone think about retirement. Next week Scottish Widows are on the road as part of Pension Awareness Day to encourage people to think about their financial wellbeing. Because that’s what we do, we think about our diet, our exercise and our mental health, but really- for me- it’s the financial side of life which brings me down. Scottish Widows want to listen, to help people understand pensions and help people plan for retirement. Which has to be a good thing? If I’m going to spend all this time away from home, it would be good to have something to look forward to! If you’re thinking about your future, you can find Scottish Widows on the #PAD18 bus from 10am – 6pm in:
Edinburgh on Monday 10th
Newcastle on Tuesday 11th
Leicester on Wednesday 12th
Cardiff on Thursday 13th
Reading on Friday 14th
London on Saturday 15th
