Martin Lewis has urged people to "share the word" on a simple tip people of a certain age can turn £800 into £5,500. Speaking on the latest episode of his podcast The Martin Lewis podcast, the Money Saving Expert gave listeners some advice on how they can advance their state pension.
During the episode broadcast on BBC Sounds, the financial guru issued an urgent plea for people aged between 45 and 70 to "act fast" on this particular money-saving tip. Speaking to his listeners, Martin said: "If you are aged 45 to 70, you should be checking now whether you are able to boost your state pension.
"Now I say 45 to 70, that's because 45 is the youngest that I think it could work with but in reality it's more likely to apply for those aged 55 to 70. But it is worth everyone listening because if you're not in that age category then it might help someone you know and we need to spread the word on this," reports the Manchester Evening News.
