A poll looking at people's financial New Year's resolutions found just 6% plan to put more money into their pension pots.
Adding cash to pension savings was way down the list, ranked only eight.
Saving money on outgoings was named number one, with adding more in a deposit account second, with debt concerns, moving house and shopping around for energy and insurance deals all ahead in the list.
The research by Gocompare.com, which asked 2,000 adults about their resolutions for 2014, found 21 per cent give up on their new plans by January normally.

Claire Peate, Gocompare.com's customer insight manager, said: "For many of us, a new year represents a fresh start – a time to think about things we want to achieve or behaviour we want to change.
"But, despite beginning the year with good intentions – our survey suggests that most people fail to keep their resolutions.
"Resolving to make a change is always a good start, but good intentions on their own aren't sometimes enough. If you really want to sort out your finances and reduce your outgoings you need to start taking action."
