Retirement

There is a big debate going on in Europe about at what age people should retire. It used to be for women at 55-60 years and for men 60-65. But since demographic situation in Europe is not so great, we lack young people and the estimation is that there won't be enough workers in about 10 years, the smart bureaucrats have found the solution - we will keep women at work until they are 65 and men until 70 years old. I think they should think more about the real problem and that’s: Why people don't have more children (the average is 1,8)?
So while you think about that - please look at the picture beneath and tell me do you think that our offices will soon look like that?  :)
Have a great day!

  1. Hey Host..

    LOL Yeah, apt depiction. All I know is that I sure don't want to be working when I'm 65 to 70 years old. I'd like to be able to enjoy a bit of retirement time.

    Good post!
