I love it here, but I operate under the assumption that I'll have to provide for myself in retirement.
- cecja 8y agoDie Renten sind sicher! Jokes aside the thing is if you have to provide yourself for retirement there went something wrong with the core of the "Sozialstaat" and getting something on your plate to eat would be the last of your worries. As demographics shift and our society gets older and older the democratic power shifts as well so trust me when old people have the most voting count in the country your "Rente" will be save. They would rather bleed the young than lose power.
