Whilst the Germans have to work till 67 and could be asked to work until 69!

Now that the Germans are taking on Greeces huge debt, after years of the Greeks getting away without paying TAXES, ( its almost a joke that most Greeks dont pay tax or pay very little!) how can the Greeks have the audacity to take to the streets to protest about any future spending cuts?



And dont get me started on the comment that they have spent or need to spend money on arms to protect them from Turkey!!!

Where, of course, the corruption comes in, is that in order to borrow this bail-out money, Greece will have to grease a few palms!



As a Yorkshireman might quip: 'Yer don't ger owt fur nowt!'



Even if Greece gets granted and receives the full amount of this loan, it still won't cover the true deficit, because they'll have lied about how much they want compared to how much they really need.



They should never have been admitted to the EU 'club'; suspension from the EU, along with 'the wart on their d1ck', RoC, is what they really deserve!

Greeks retire aged 63? Outrageous!!!



I retired after 21 years military service at age.....39!!!! I have been on pension now for nearly 10 years.



No wonder I feel so old.



Studies have shown that 60% of men die within 5 years of retirement due to loss of status, lower income, etc. That should help.
