London
(ANI):
Susan
Boyle
is
expected
to
accumulate
a
22million
pounds
pension
pot
by
the
time
she
retires.
The
Scottish
spinster,
49,
who
found
worldwide
fame
on
'Britain"s
Got
Talent" with
'I
Dreamed
a
Dream"
currently
has
her
mind
set
on
a
new
vision
–
absolute
financial
security.
She
has
opted
to
live
on
500
pounds
a
week,
hardly
a
star"s
wages.
But
this
has
allowed
her
to
steadily
transfer
more
than
9million
pounds
into
a
high
interest
account.
Determined
to
safeguard
her
future,
Boyle,
who
will
be
worth
18.5million
pounds
by
the
end
of
next
year,
has
invested
her
money
into
a
4.6
pc
interest
account,
netting
her
around
400,000
pounds
a
year
after
the
government
has
taken
its
slice
in
taxes.
By
the
end
of
2011,
this
is
on
course
to
double
to
more
than
800,000
pounds
per
annum,
ensuring
by
the
time
she
is
60,
she
will
have
a
nest
egg
in
excess
of
22million
pounds.
“Susan
requested
a
weekly
budget
of
500
pounds
to
cover
basic
living
expenses," the
Mirror
quoted
a
friend
of
the
singer
as
saying.
“She
can
ask
for
more
money
at
any
time,
and
dip
in
and
out
of
her
pension
pot
as
and
when
she
likes
–
last
week,
for
instance,
she
bought
a
huge
plasma
screen
TV
for
her
new
home.
But
Susan
is
terrified
her
fame
will
end
and
wants
to
protect
her
pensionable
years.
So
thanks
to
some
canny
banking,
she
has
been
told
by
her
financial
team
to
expect
a
windfall
of
around
22.3million
pounds
on
her
60th
birthday.
“The
figures
will
continue
to
stack
up
with
continued
royalties
from
her
best-selling
debut
record,
in
addition
to
future
endorsement
deals,
TV
slots
and
gigs.
Her
present
situation
may
not
be
lavish
but
her
future
certainly
will
be," her
friend
added.
The
'Britain"s
Got
Talent"
runner-up
sells
an
astonishing
30,000
records
a
week
and
is
said
to
be
planning
her
retirement
with
military-like
precision.
