We talk a lot about pensions no, these days
and there is a great confusion between
pension as an institution
and retirement as a mentality.
Pension as an institution is obvious that it is right.
Do you think that in England, at the beginning of 1900,
they gave the pension I think of 5 shillings,
some 14 pounds stuff a week,
to those who were over 70 years old.
Too bad that life expectancy
average was 47.
In mathematics, states are always very careful.
So you think in the era of the factories, during the war,
you had people doing inhumane jobs,
and then they arrived at certain ages that
you could not do it anymore, you were completely
worn. From there the logic
to have some grain
that would allow you to live
when your body could not take it anymore.
And then the pension has been extended
to billions of other cases and therefore has
a logic
very precise, very clear.
Then we could argue
of how they are delivered,
how they are not delivered.
Pensions can still be paid,
in a world where people are living more and more?
And billions of other problems.
Politics in general
he always rides a lot of emotions,
on these issues,
more than facts.
It’s like Renzi’s 80 euro bonus:
imagine if one proposed,
instead of 80 euros,
80 euros in books,
but as knowledge
they can earn you 8 million euros.
What would you like most to the mass? It does not interest
the potential will affect the 80 euro cash.
But back to the problem of pensions, the problem
pensions as institutions that have created the retirement mentality.
That today you see generations
who are 20, 30, 40, 50,
the retiree mentality works like this:
I do a shit job,
up to retirement age, 60, 65, 70, depending on where I live in the world,
and then finally,
when they reach retirement age, or I do not do a bat anymore,
or finally I will do what I have always wanted to do in life.
Now, tell me if it is
a reasoning that stands up: number one because you have to wait
to have 60, 65, 70 years,
to do what you want in your life.
But why not start doing it now,
immediately? No, because the work, the crisis, the difficulties ..
We live in the best
period of history, the richest period of opportunity,
from all points of view.
Riccardo Zacconi has just made an exit from almost 6 billion dollars.
Why not you?
The second great myth of retired mentality
that’s when, when you have money,
at that point you can stop working and do nothing.
Which is the same concept as those who say:
I earn a lot of money so I do not have to work anymore.
Apart from that I tried to stay two weeks
in Australia, on Broom beach,
to do nothing.
Belin, after two weeks you do nothing,
from the heads against watermelons ….
But then doing nothing kills, kills not only in a theoretical sense, it kills in the sense
physical, your neurons start … go away.
Look at this speech at TED
of this neuroscientist named Sandrine Thuret.
It makes you clearly see how it is possible even in adults
generate new neurons,
if you are active, if you continue to learn, if your brain is moving.
If you put yourself there thinking of making a living
passive as a pensioner,
bye bye to your neurons.
And the pensioner’s mentality is contagious,
because it’s a mentality of postponing,
accepting a job that does not
it’s fine with you, but you have to do it anyway
the same. And the
mentality of lamentation, of always being someone else’s fault. However, everyone makes his choices.
I do not say that everyone should try to leave
a sign in the universe.
But at least one sign with a chalk on the blackboard
home. At least that yes.
