There’s also the possibility that the government will change the rules between when you’re 66 and when you’re 70. By deferring you are placing a lot of faith in a political class that you can’t really trust.

This increased value gives a weekly benefit, which when living week to week (which is the case for someone solely on the state pension is doing). If you happen to be 77 and need an extra €10 before your next payment, the gross lifetime payment is irrelevant. Your discussion must be qualified in that it is for people that this is just surplus to requirement cash, and not a necessity for week to week living.

If you are entitled to the full contributory pension can you retire, take it and continue working for your employer, if they’re agreeable.
