The problem with investments and why I think pensions are still best, is the greed of fund managers and costs of buying shares. Paying 1% upfront and 1% every time you invest more and 10% of profits every year is an abomination and sucks away most of the profit, if you do it alone, you will not hav enough time to check the markets, look at end of year reports, forecasts etc.
If there were good cheap value for money fund managers I'd invest in that instead of a pension. But for now, and until the financial system loses the insane fund management greed, I won't.
