“I’ll sort it out later” – it’s a phrase we’ve all said about money. But in 2025, with UK living costs climbing and pension rules evolving, procrastination could hit your wallet harder than you think. At MarketingControl, we’ve seen the fallout of delay up close. Here’s why acting now beats waiting – and what’s at stake.
Lost Compound Growth
Delaying investments by even a year robs you of compound interest. £5,000 in a decent ISA today could grow to £8,000 in a decade – wait, and you’re starting from scratch later. Time’s your biggest asset; don’t waste it.
Tax Bills That Sneak Up
Missed deadlines or ignored allowances (hello, Capital Gains Tax!) can mean overpaying HMRC. Planning ahead keeps your tax burden lean – and legal.
Retirement Reality Check
Pension contributions feel optional until they’re not. The State Pension won’t cut it for most, and private plans need years to mature. A five-year delay could slash your retirement pot by tens of thousands.
Peace of Mind Has No Price
Stress from financial uncertainty isn’t free – it costs you sleep and focus. A solid plan today lifts that weight.
The clock’s ticking, but it’s not too late. At MarketingControl, we make planning painless and profitable. Ready to stop delaying? Contact us for a chat about your future – no jargon, just results.
