Pensions article was irresponsible

I READ with some horror the article on pensions by Paul Mills (Irish Examiner, September 28). This misleading and almost entirely inaccurate rubbish cannot pass without retort.

Financial experts, including business leaders, accountants and media commentators (notably Eddie Hobbs), almost universally agree that a well structured pension arrangement is among the best investments any taxpayer can make.

If Mr Mills has had a bad experience of pensions, let him air it, but his negative generalities only frighten people into avoiding what is a crucially important subject for everyone.
