For a long time now, we have been offering various articles that include several key factors in the future reduction of our pensions: population aging, Social Security deficit, precarious employment (even though the unemployment figures seem to be improving), etc. Let us focus on the first of these, and understand why it is a risk for our future retirement pension.
Information from the specialized press
All the economic newspapers echo the difficult sustainability of our current pension system, and the various formulas applied in other countries that could be imported to improve this situation.
- Cinco DíasThe aging of the population is a fact. The lengthening of life expectancy means that retirees will be retired for longer, a tremendous challenge.”
- ExpansiónThe aging rate in Spain increases for the seventh consecutive year and reaches a historic high of 118%, which means that for every 100 children under 16 years of age there are 118 over 64 years of age”.
We could mention an infinite number of newspapers, which reflect a social reality: pensions will soon be difficult to sustain as we know them.
Aron Strandberg and his dilapidary graphs
We love this economist who is aiming very high, and the national press has been reporting on him for some time, such as El País and ABC.
Thanks to his predictive calculations and countless data from previous years, he has prepared a graph that shows very clearly the aging of the population over the decades throughout Europe, but especially in Spain.
Here is the link to see the moving graph of the progressive aging in Europe.
And we leave you the static screenshots of two past dates and the prediction of 40 years from now. You can see how, while the United Kingdom or France, every 50 years their population ages in 5 years on average, in Spain it does it twice as fast, which is very worrying.
