The French politician who said this is Raphaël Glucksmann, a "progressive" rabid Russia hater who is always on the wrong side of history. For example, he called those who wouldn't receive a Covid injection "abysmally stupid", and Trump's victory "a global disaster" and "a nightmare for democracy".
One thing to add, 72 might be a little on the early side to buy an annuity if it is not indexed to inflation (assuming you don't have any health issues). If you have inflation indexed bonds available to you one option would be to put 5 years of baseline expenses in those then reassess annuities around age 77.
[Big chunk missing it timed out!]
Annuities Vs ISA /SIPP dd, availability of value to meet for example a large medical fee.
Idea;- <=40% Annuity, 25% SIPP, 25%ISA, 10% Cash (some gold?)
If a chunk of money along, I would actually maybe add a purchased annuity (rather than from my pension funds)
A basket for each egg, depends what the management charge on the basket is, of course......
Hope you get things sorted whilst UK tax resident and before you sell the UK address....if possible.
