I wonder if you were similar - I find I have no interest in retirement, I can’t think what else I would do

You're eligible for french state pension aren't you ?Could be worse, might of worked for Robert Maxwell
I could not face retirement but bent employees forced me into it. I finally took the advice of an employee of 20 years and gave up. When you get to 75 and feel no responsibility to others the attraction wears thin. I am now assisting my last loyal employee to make a business of his own. He will succeed because he possesses qualities which I admire and are quite rare today.I wonder if you were similar - I find I have no interest in retirement, I can’t think what else I would do
Having said that life without challenges is slightly boring but relief from fighting fires is like a breath of fresh air. The weather here is crap and the garden is as good as it is going to get. I need a creative pursuit like knitting possibly.
You have 7 qualifying years from the UK on your National Insurance record when you reach State Pension age.
You worked in an EEA country for 16 years and paid contributions to that country’s state pension.
You will meet the minimum qualifying years to get the new State Pension because of the time you worked overseas. Your new State Pension amount will only be based on the 7 years of National Insurance contributions you made in the UK.
Sounds about right

Yes, 7 years and counting.
Won’t come to anything on it’s own, when we first started here (before i had even given Farage a thought other than some other guy who survived a plane crash) and had our interview with the MSA (no, not motor sport assn @Martin Holden ) they said there was an agreement that all pension payment histories were merged together

No. I haven't been 'trying' to tell you, I have told you; I have been 'trying' to educate you...
Brexit is primarily about sovereignty and democracy; the medium to long term financial gains are a happy side benefit. If people had been told the truth before joining the EC / EU, that they would not only be subordinate but would have to subsidise their nearest competitors to their own expense, nobody in their right mind would have allowed it to happen.
As it is, surely nobody in their right mind would carry on bitching and whining for over four years about a democratic vote they lost, and about something that is now, how shall I put it, a fait accompli, upon which they have no effect whatsoever, and which just eats them up, would they...?

No idea. A similar deal to uk I expect, moving goal posts. As I recall, pension age was reducing, then they realised, oh sh!t, we won’t be able to make the baby boomers pensions, so then the age was rising again. For our age (in uk) now 67?
Don’t even know if France had the same baby boom as the uk.
Used to be a joke at school assemblies, each year, the classes doubled
Mind, FIL in CR has worked his out, he has to work until 77

You don’t think it’s a good thing to help neighbors?

But that was part of the contract , as an EU member your citizens could live and work anywhere and the contributions you paid would be taken into account.
If the above story was a Brit and the dastardly Germans were refusing him , can you imagine the headlines in the Mail and Express?
You seem quite happy if the boot is on your foot but switch it over and you all whine like snotty little children.

Exactly, no one has a problem with that! Its the fact it is being done retrospectively that is the problem.
