That is what most people don't get. You work for your retirement, not only your salary. Delayed gratification is hard, but it pays off.
I would not count on only one pension because anything can happen to the fund over a long period of time. I am working on a strategy for myself and additional income that can help me in the future and I do not have to have only one source. The earlier many people understand this, the more likely they are to have at least some savings in old age.
Better understanding will let those people to start thinking about what will going to happen in the nearest future, preparing yourself
when you get old should always have that space from your finances.
It will help you to achieve good and stable lifestyle even you are no longer working, aside from your pensions early investments or savings will help.
Good thing to think about it while you can still find sources of finances to save up or to invest, so you don't need to worry
if what you need to do when you are already old.
