Companies are beginning to walk away from pension obligations to employees.
As a Christian I feel deeply that the object of my life is not ‘to gain the whole world’ but to live simply and make decisions that are in love and not for my own profit. (up to now I have lost a lot of money and property this way, by being generous).
I was raised in a different time when you could trust people. Now I am sick at heart to see how large companies turn their backs on pensioned retirees while execs walk away with millions, and the Govt allows them to do it.
In this context, do you think it would be moral/ethical for me to focus on getting and keeping money for security in old age? It is terrible to be old and poor. I cannot trust that my pension will be available to me, and I don’t have kids to take care of me, not that I would expect them to. What do you all think?
