PROS & CONS OF THE AGEING POPLUATION
KEY
- BURDEN
- POSITIVES
Longer, more active retirement
Quality time with children/grandchildren
More people available for labour market
Having to pay out pensions longer
Strain on Health and social care services
Some older people have disposable income because they have paid off their mortgages
- Boosts economy
Some physically fit older people volunteer and 'give back' to society
If the pension age isn't increased and people have the option to retire, this places a strain on our shrinking adult workforce
Grown up children end up having to "bridge the gap" and care for their parents to make up for the lack of services
