A recent BBC Newsnight poll suggests that retirement as we know
it is no longer an option.
70% of the 1,000 people questioned, thought it would not be
possible for them to stop work and survive on a pension for the
next 30 years.
72% of the people that were still in work were concerned that
the funds they are saving for retirement will not be sufficient
enough for them to lead the lifestyle they wished to lead after
giving up work.
77% felt that the younger people of today would have a harder
time than them in retirement and 54% felt that it was unfair that
younger people would not have the same opportunities as those who
are retiring today.
