Senior Railcard

Once you get to 60 there are some benefits. 

If you live in the UK other than England you get a free bus pass at 60. In England we have to wait to 65 or retirement age. 

But whenever you reach 60 you can get a Senior Railcard.

It's £30 for a year. It saves about 33% on every off-peak rail fare you buy.

Three off-peak trips from home to London would pay for itself and more.

So I got one. First use today. It only works for rail fare. You will still be stiffed by Sadiq Khan's TfL for any buses and underground trains.

So far saved £11.20.

As I bought it with Tesco Clubcard no actual money changed hands...

Getting older does have its benefits. Not enough to make up for actually getting old, but it's something, I suppose.
