Isn’t it obvious? Number 1 took his pension and number 3 stole the rest to buy skateboards and I-phones. Why would anyone suspect an upstanding citizen like number 2?
The thief is either the brilliant young hacker on the right or the wily old grifter on the left. The guy in the middle is the pension manager who made her rich.
one of the problems is our lengthening life spans. When pensions were first offered people died younger. Now it is difficult to fund them, since we are healthier in general. Does that mean that those who counted on it during their working years should just “suck it up?” No. but for those coming into the system there will have to be changes.
Pension, pfui! I’m just gonna have 3 dozen kids to support me in my old age. Yeah, THAT’S the ticket. (Of course, maybe I should’ve started 50 years ago, when I was 25.)
It’s geezer #1. Payments to retirees now over age 75 have forced many pensions to the point of insolvency due to overly optimistic longevity & return assumptions.
It’s his own fault for not holding his elected representatives accountable for allowing corporate theft to be unaccountable. And it’s his own fault for voluntarily agreeing to work for the corporations terms.
I thank God & the U.S. Government for two things … First, for my Social Security Retirement Benefits … and Second, for living in a foreign country where I can afford to live on that meager pension!
Duh, it was Reagan who started the dipping into Social Security annuities. Always look to Republicans when crime busting cause that’s where the money ends up in their greedy, grubby hands.
