if you live shorter, it is another argument that it wasnt worth it at all.
and tercero - this money is the best LOAN that any government can receive, better than bonds. no % interest rates on it, just free loan for government - like Bjorn said, and sometimes they will blindly steal it from you.

oh - i won't argue with that - and i am 43 years old and have studied business management and a little bit of economics. and i have paid into the pension system for myself while i was employed and also paid for my employees. so i don't think there's anything you said that i did not know yet.
and as someone that pays for employees that will receive pension one day: Most smaller businesses will not be able to afford what it costs to have everyone retire on a nice pension at 57
this makes it difficult to discuss this with people that live in moms basement, or are employed or just work for themselves
sorry if that sounds rude
