The pension from 65 is no longer secure.

But if you choose your job cleverly, you have a good chance of being able to retire earlier.

If you are about to decide on an apprenticeship or study, you should already have your pension in mind.

When choosing a job, it is definitely worth thinking about the years in which the job no longer played the main role.

There are a few professions that not only bring in good money, but also promise a fairly early retirement.

It's never too early to start planning for your retirement.

Especially people who will soon start working life should take a little time and think about retirement.

Because the contributions that the current generation will receive will probably not be high and only partially sufficient to maintain their standard of living.

It therefore makes sense not only to make provisions for your retirement in the form of ETFs or other investments, but also to choose the right job.

Because depending on your profession, not only a better-paid retirement awaits you, but also a longer one.

Retire early: These jobs make it possible

In order to get an orientation as to which jobs are really worthwhile in terms of salary and retirement, we will give you an overview here:

• 1. Pharmacist: This professional group rarely has to work longer than 65 and still earns well.

  On average, pharmacists can expect a salary of 54,000 euros per year.

• 2. Air traffic controller: A job that definitely requires a lot of focus and commitment, but lures with an early retirement age and a good salary.

  Because the job is so demanding, air traffic controllers typically retire at 55.

• 3. Dentists: Dentists' salaries are impressive: In NRW, the average annual salary is over 73,000 euros.

  Normally, the retirement age of 65 also applies to dentists, but those who have their own practice can also retire earlier.

  Therefore, according to Yahoo! Finance, dentists also retire at 62 on average.

These three examples show that with the right job it is quite possible not only to retire earlier, but also to still have enough money available.

By the way: A degree is not absolutely necessary to make this dream come true.

Electricians and plumbers also have a good chance of not only earning above average, but also of being able to count on good pension plans.
