I gather the norm is to do the opposite! Most pensions get moved into
a low risk areas when you become 60. That's what automatically
happened with all of mine.
The argument is that you don't want it to suddenly fall a long way
just before you reach 65. Your pension pot has done its earning
already, now lets make it safe.

I am 4 years off 60 so is it worth the gamble with approx 1/3 of my funds
(£90K)...
