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.

It is also stupid because life expectancy is not equivalent to life quality.
Just because people live to 90 now instead of 80 doesn’t mean they can actually do anything significant for those 10 years, they could be bed ridden or house bound and kept alive only because they are taking 30 pills a day. It isn’t living, it’s staying alive. Retirement shouldn’t be tied to that.
