Let’s say Mr. Mark invests $1000 each year into the pension fund. He has been investing for 45 years since the age of 19.
Now your pension fund is worth 200k dollars. And the plan you selected through the pension scheme gives you 8 percent.
This means you receive 16k dollars every month or $192k every year.
If you choose the open pension plan there is no restriction on any member’s limits or if you choose the closed pension plan there are restrictions, the pension is only for members.
The closed pension plan had the choice to include more than one member or related member any pensioner wished to include.
