Pension Age Rises Leaving Many Struggling | Leeds News

from Leeds News Today | 2 Min News | The Daily News Now!

Pension age is rising to 67 for some, forcing those born between August 6 and September 5 to wait longer for their first check — often until they’re nearly 67. While the government argues this reflects longer working lives, the reality hits hard: many can’t keep working, and past hikes have doubled poverty rates among retirees. Especially vulnerable are low-income workers and the self-employed, who now face a financial squeeze with no guaranteed safety net. The push is on to fix retirement savings — but for now, many are left scrambling to make ends meet in their golden years.
