Definitely better to have a good buffer if you can not rely on the (right-wing) government.

Of course not. The richest 1% of Western men own about half of the all wealth in the World.Â
In Finland richest 10% of people consume 13 times more than the poorest 10% of people. The numbers are the same as in the UK, France, Sweden, Netherlands and so on.Â

What would it even mean if most people were rich? Same amount of goods and services being produced? Does rich mean you don’t work?

To play the devil’s advocate here – the good man is in his 60s by the time the GenZ retires he is long gone so it doesn’t matter to him if he says the current system will hold or not.Â
If I’d be the boss of an institution that is there to pay retirement money and soon also paying it to myself, I’d also say that everyone is safe and to continue doing what you do.
It’s a bit ironic that he is accusing genZ of seeing the future pension in a negative light and their own portfolio in a positive one, to then follow up it’s good when people save on their own instead of only relying on the pension. So which one is it? Is it now safe or not?
And maybe last but not least, the pension system is quite expensive if you calculate what you put in and what you get out in comparison to a fully self funded system where you have 0.2 TER in an ETF.
