Student loans crossed the \u00a3100bn mark in 2016-17 after the coalition government increased undergraduate tuition fees from \u00a33,600 a year to \u00a39,000 in 2012.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Student Loan Company revealed that England graduates now owe an average debt just under \u00a345,000, in contrast to students in Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland who owe lower amounts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>More recent forecasts by the House of Commons library&nbsp;predict the total will reach \u00a3460bn by the mid-2040s.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With student finance already expected to be a battleground in next year\u2019s election, Labour, if elected, has pledged to reverse changes made by the government accusing them of \u201chammering the next generation of nurses, teachers and social workers.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Energy saving to return to prevent winter blackouts<\/strong><strong><\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Discount offers for households to use less electricity at peak times will return this winter as part of plans to minimise the risk of power cuts, reports Michael Race for <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bbc.co.uk\/news\/business-65915346\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">BBC News.<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>National Grid ESO said it is taking steps to &#8220;minimise the potential impact to electricity customers&#8221; in the UK if supplies were to be disrupted again during the winter. While it is expected to have sufficient capacity to meet demand, it says it would be &#8220;prudent&#8221; to maintain the energy-saving scheme.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A typical property will have to pay \u00a32,074 a year for gas and electricity from July, far above the \u00a31,277 average bill in winter 2021.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>National Grid ESO said the Ukraine war posed risks and uncertainties to gas supplies across Europe, and the &#8220;tight days&#8221; on the UK energy grid would most likely be in January. &#8220;There will be cold snaps in the winter and therefore we do expect to use our normal operational tools,&#8221; said a spokesman for National Grid ESO.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The amount of energy saved during the scheme last winter was enough to power almost 10 million homes, but the amount earned by each household is still to be known.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>How much pension do I need for retirement?<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>As a general rule of thumb, people tend to retire on two-thirds of their annual salary, writes Nicole Garcia Merida for <a href=\"https:\/\/moneyweek.com\/personal-finance\/pensions\/605580\/how-much-pension-do-i-need\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">MoneyWeek<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>While everyone might have a different \u2018right\u2019 amount for retirement \u2013 as per this rule, with an average salary of \u00a333,000, the earner is placed between the Pensions and Lifetime Savings Association\u2019s (PLSA) moderate and minimum categories.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A report by Now: Pensions and the Pensions Policy Institute found that \u2018underpensioned\u2019 groups, have private pension incomes 18-64% lower than the average UK person, reaching retirement with as low as \u00a32,850. These groups primarily include single mothers, the self-employed, carers, people with disabilities, and ethnic minorities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Merida looks at the below steps to plan your retirement better:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\" type=\"1\">\n<li>Sit down and crunch numbers<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Boost your pension when you get a pay rise<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Keep track of old pension pots<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The longer you invest for, the more compound interest you will benefit from<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p>You can save better for your retirement outside a pension by investing with ISAs, property and maintaining a long-term focused investment portfolio.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Photo credits: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pexels.com\/photo\/person-holding-white-scroll-2292837\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Pexels<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>From peak levels of student debt to energy saving and retirement pension &#8211; here are our favourite must know money stories this week to help you get your head around your personal finances.
