Title: RPI - work out your individual RPI
Post by: lindacarl on December 16, 2006, 21:58:10 PM

They say that pensioners & older people face a larger increase in their RPI as many of the items used in calculating RPI are mainly bought by the young

For those of you who haven't made your mind up about moving to Turkey or staying in the UK. This might be an eye opening (if not eye popping!) moment. By using the site below you can work out YOUR RPI instead of the average.

I was shocked when ours came out over 20  :o compared to the normal RPI of under or around 3.

ours was 4 but so what does it mean,As I have said in the past brown will be a worse than blair,their policies and lack of fore thought has made country poorer and the iraq war has made the mid east even precarious. they robbed private pensions and continue to do so to the tune of billions a year, and to save in uk with 40% tax is at best standing still. is it any wonder hundreds of thousands are leaving for a better and more secure life abroad, government will spin this by saying that this has happened before, however that was when uk had an empire with opportunities, now its an exodus. rant over.
