No More Retirement

[pioneer]

Nearly three quarters of people believe retirement as we currently understand it will not be possible in the future, a BBC Newsnight poll has suggested.

Some 70% of the 1,000 asked thought it would not be feasible for people to stop work then live on a pension for up to 30 years, the ComRes survey found.

Some 72% of those in work were also worried about not having the funds to live as they would like in retirement.

More than three quarters (77%) thought younger people would get a worse deal.

And more than half (54%) thought it was unfair that younger generations would be worse off than those currently approaching retirement age.

Pension changes

The poll of a cross section of adults this month follows a number of changes to retirement announced by the previous and current governments against a backdrop of an ageing population and public spending cuts. - BBC

This is a prognosis, we think so much about money, so we are forced to work longer, here in Germany they are planning to extend the retirement age to 67.

With people living longer useful lives, the gradual extension of the retirement age seems to me to be a perfectly sound idea.

With so many of my ex-colleagues dropping dead shortly after their retirement date, I wonder whether no retirement is actually the healthy option for workaholics.
