The man is very thankful for the financial guru's advice
A man has revealed how he was able to boost his state pension by a huge £28,000 - thanks to advice from money saving expert Martin Lewis. On the Martin Lewis Money Show on ITV, a man called Brian wrote in to thank the financial guru for his tip on National Insurance contribution top ups.
Brian wrote to Martin saying: "Thank you so much. Without you I would never have thought of checking."Responding to the message, Martin noted that the pension rate also goes up with inflation. He also highlighted that the average life expectancy after people get their state pension is 20 years, reports the Mirror.
Over the last few months, Martin has warned people between the ages of 45 and 70 to check their National Insurance records. This is because a major deadline was fast approaching. If people have fewer years than this, their state pension will be smaller - and you need 10 years to get anything at all. The deadline for being able to buy for those years was to come to an end this April 5.
