I've just received a letter from my employer of two months stating that I fall under the required income to be automatically enrolled in the company pension scheme. I retired from the railway two years early in 2015 and took this driving job more to get me out of the house and because it is an interesting job. Financially it provides cash for a holiday and upkeep of my car which is handy. I could ask to join the scheme but I'm not sure if it's really worth it. I think I will earn circa £4-5k from this work (there is no work at all for one month in the Summer and weather can affect things such as that a fortnight ago)
I'm just wondering if I'm just as well off staying out of the scheme. I don't qualify for a State Pension until Sept 2020. Would I be able to boost my future income by much?
