Not going to preach to you but I had my #fluvaccine. I did it because I don’t want flu. I have a family to look after, elderly parents and a very busy job that I can’t afford to have colleagues pick up my workload if I am off. #vaccineswork I am proud to have mine.

How women can take control of their pensions | Nest pensions
When women have 43% less in their pension pots than men by age 55, on average, it’s more important than ever to break the taboos on talking about money and to prepare for your future.
