A friend of mine turned 31 yesterday. He does not look like people who are like over 30. Once again a reminder that it is only 2,5 years away for me.

Earlier this week the biggest Finnish employers´ organisation stated there should be limit on employer pension payments which would directly mean that pensions in the future will be significantly smaller than nowadays (because you cannot cut pensions that you are already paying). So much for generational solidarity.

On that topic, here is a link to my most recent column in Ellit.
