Get a job lamictal used for bipolar disorder People with a large pension pot need to be aware of the rules on the lifetime allowance (LTA) for pensions. At present, the maximum fund value is £1.5m but this reduces to £1.25m from April 6, 2014, and could do so again. If you have a fund approaching this, consider seeing a financial adviser. For example, if you are 55 and planning to retire at 60 and your pension fund is £1m, even allowing for 5pc growth in its value, you may breach the £1.25m barrier. This would mean you had a potential tax bill to pay and it may be that an adviser would suggest to someone in this situation that they take action to protect against breaching the LTA.
