But it was expected they would die from old age 3 years after retirement...
62 and 65 years old......
Now we retire at 62 ( or 55 if you are a fireman or policeman) and die at
85.....
Pension plans never thought that would happen....at least the old time
ones.....

> But, let's not forget. Pensions were one of the things management used as
a bargaining tool to keep wages down. Employees were persuaded to work for
less today on the promise of being cared for after retirement.
