Maybe not that wise, my company pension is paid by a tobacco company and we all know that lots of peeps want to see tobacco wiped out. Luckily the pension trustees are pretty savvy and most of the pot is invested in exclusive property in London.
All investments, pensions, savings etc are a bit of a gamble if you want a decent return but most of it is better than doing nothing. As you say , god knows what kids today are going to do about their future .
