From the EU Commission

With retirement age being 67 by 2029 this means that the average German man gets to enjoy his retirement for approximately 10 years. So why do we pay into pension and social security for ~50 years?

And most pension funds institutions are in debt 🤷‍♂️

that too

Another consideration is that based on these numbers, women disproportionately are given 44% more benefit than men on average based on time.

100%

good question

i pay about 18% retirement per month

i would rather buy bitcoin with it

My mum worked 50 years, always pays her dues and right now she doesn't even have money in the third week of the month. Absolutely ridiculous. If people in their 20's or early 30's think that they'll still cash in on their pension they're delusional.

its sad, if i dont get something out, why i am paying it anyway. we just pay for a broken system. which will fail sooner or later...

Consume and die.

work, pay, die.
