This is the way forward Pete, use a company scheme if it is well subsidised like old school PLCs and council/govt. otherwise stick it in property land hemicudas etc anything that is desirable that they can't make more of! Then it's just the trick of unloading it at the right time.

Pete you have to be a Director to be eligible to have a self administered pension plan and even then unless you invest in secured bonds which do not provide good returns they are just as effected by the stock market with regard to value as any other investment ask bri how much he could have sold his industrial units for 2 years ago and how much he could get now.
The fact is that the capitalist system relies as much on recession as growth,
Ie the stock market cannot continue to rise continuously without the pound and any other assets devaluing.
In fact now is a great time to start a pension as a lot of blue chip stock is undervalued so when the market does recover there will be some massive gains to be made.
The unfortunate thing is that your daughter will probably have to face the same recessional problems in 20015 and 2020.
Something that will probably not worry me to much.
