Only 17% of Russians believe that state payments will be enough for a normal life, while the vast majority (76 %) are convinced of the opposite.\n<\/p>\n<p>Advertisement:<\/p>\n<p>&#13;<br \/>\n&#13;<\/p>\n<p>\n\tIn order not to be left below the poverty line, Russians are forced to think about saving while they are still young.&#8221;\n<\/p>\n<p>\n\tDetails: Around 30% believe that saving for old age should start before the age of 25. One in four considers 25-35 the optimal period, while another 14% cite 36-45 years.\n<\/p>\n<p>\n\tMeanwhile, two-thirds of respondents (65%) are already planning additional ways to earn money in retirement.\n<\/p>\n<p>\n\tAmong them, 40% expect to take up physically manageable jobs, 33% plan to continue working in their professions, and 28% rely solely on personal savings.\n<\/p>\n<p>\n\tSome openly plan to live off produce from their own vegetable gardens (21%) or expect help from their children (15%).\n<\/p>\n<p>\n\tThe FISU drew attention to the position of the Russian parliament. In particular, Irina Rodnina, a State Duma MP from United Russia party, advised pensioners to &#8220;become self-sufficient&#8221;. She said that they should not rely on the state, since a pension is merely &#8220;old-age assistance&#8221; rather than a full-fledged income.\n<\/p>\n<p class=\"hl3\">\n\tRead more: <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.pravda.com.ua\/eng\/articles\/2025\/09\/18\/7531403\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Stagflation and an impoverished population: how the Kremlin is paying for the war against Ukraine<\/a>\n<\/p>\n<p>\n\tBackground:\n<\/p>\n<p>\n\tSupport Ukrainska Pravda on <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.patreon.com\/pravdaua\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Patreon<\/a>!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"\u041f\u043e\u0441\u0438\u043b\u0430\u043d\u043d\u044f \u0441\u043a\u043e\u043f\u0456\u0439\u043e\u0432\u0430\u043d\u043e The Russian State Duma (lower chamber of the Russian parliament) advises pensioners not to rely on&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":183742,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[14],"tags":[64,63,99,186,184,185],"class_list":{"0":"post-183741","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-personal-finance","8":"tag-au","9":"tag-australia","10":"tag-business","11":"tag-finance","12":"tag-personal-finance","13":"tag-personalfinance"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/183741","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=183741"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/183741\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/183742"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=183741"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=183741"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=183741"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
