The reason is beside others the growing number of old and very old people who receive money while a shrinking number of young working people has to pay for them.

This essay shows the different influences on retirement decisions, the institutional frame and the interests of the individual, who finally makes the decision. In this way an overview is given, to better understand the retirement trends of the future.
