In what should be their golden years, millions of pensioners face a harsh financial reality: debt. This silent crisis is leaving 33% of UK retirees with an average debt of £17,000, and the toll is more than just financial.

Welcome back to the  @Economese  channel where together we will learn the language of money and wealth.

Driven by the high cost of living, inflation, limited pension savings, and the pressure to support family as the “Bank of Mum and Dad,” many pensioners are caught in a cycle of loans, mortgages, and credit card debt.

This not only affects those in retirement but those who are close to retirement who may have plans that are not on track.

This video delves into the unseen struggles faced by pensioners, highlighting key findings from SunLife’s Life Well Spent Report and examining factors that contribute to this growing issue.

Our analysis explains how poor pension preparation, economic pressures, and family commitments are leading retirees toward debt in unprecedented numbers.

We also explore some potential solutions, from debt management and financial counselling and education to careful use of equity release and policy improvements that could alleviate some of the financial strain for future pensioners.

When Courtney and Chad had beautiful twin girls, they weren’t ready for the not-so-beautiful reality of incurring double the costs to provide for their children, or the almost $70,000 in debt they would accumulate over Courtney’s maternity leave. Between Courtney’s penchant for adorable baby clothes and Chad’s smoking habit, and without an emergency fund to cover unexpected costs, their financial future is looking grim. It’s up to Gail Vaz-Oxlade to help these two to break their bad habits so the twins won’t have to grow up doing without. If Courtney and Chad are up for the challenge, they could earn up to $5,000 to put toward their family’s future. If they aren’t, their hopes and dreams for the twins could go up in smoke. –
