Millennial tension: Why would anyone save for a pension?
Episode description
It’s hard to plan for the future when the present seems so grim. But is a nihilistic attitude to pensions creating a ticking time bomb for millennials? And have scandals and corporate embezzlement meant we have all lost faith in the safety net of our twilight years? Disillusioned Bunker host Marie Le Conte is joined by Dr. Hayley James, senior research fellow in the Centre for Personal Financial Wellbeing at Aston University, to ask what (if anything) can restore trust in the pensions system.
- “ We often hark back to a ‘golden age’ of pensions that hasn’t always existed.”
- “The gender pension gap is huge, bigger than the gender pay gap.”
