Attention: Please take a moment to consider our terms and conditions before posting.

A bit of help if you have 2 mins, please

This is related to my work - I'm asking a few people, but thought it was worth a try on here too. Please whisper back to me if you prefer not to have your answers on the board.

Can you tell me what you think of when you see/ hear the following words - just what first comes into your head (but keep it clean, please!)

- The Future

- Retirement

- Pensions

Then can you say whether or not you have a pension (just yes or no), and what age band you are: under 24/25-34/35-44/45-54 or 55+.

Thank you!
