Ricarda Lang retires at 63 – After Lanz's TV faux pas, she gives seniors new hope. Lang admits that pensions are not enough for many seniors.
There is a need for “flexible models that fit the new life situation” It would be wise to provide incentives for those who are able and willing to work longer, she says. Lang is optimistic about her misstep because it has sparked new discussion about pensions. She has no intention of making room for an increase in the retirement age.
