Denmark is set to have the highest retirement age in Europe after its parliament adopted a law raising it to 70 by 2040.

The retirement age at 70 will apply to all people born after 31 December 1970.

    The bigger problem here is that people above 50 are having very low, nearly impossible chances of finding a job if they lose one, especially with rise of AI. These people can’t have a job, and now can’t have a pension.

    Well done, governments around the world.

    EDIT: If I’m getting this right, people of Denmark can start taking out pension prior to retirement, so might not be too catastrophical.
