I plan on workin when I'm in my 60s, of course I'll be on my third job with two pensions doing what I want to do.

side note...
My sister, who is going through her MBA program came over and talked about how the retirement age is going to be upped to 77.
I asked her where she heard that and she said "she thinks" it was in her textbook.
I recommended she double check before taking her next exam and if she needed help with any legal or regulatory stuff to give me a call.

summary....
The youth are precious, ignorant little things....

Im with you, I think I might go after a state job after this, maybe teaching

The way things are going, she probably isn't to far off.

They would but McDonalds doesn't like to take chances.

I don't know why the French youth are rioting about retirement. Shouldn't the first thing they riot about be about getting employed? Though I'm sure France's labor protection laws have helped that out greatly. Why hire some unknown 22 year old who hasn't worked a day in their life and you can't fire them if they suck when you can hire a 30 year old who has experience and is shown to be a dependable worker?

Riots in France are traditional. They don't need to have a real reason. Hell, they would tear the place down if there was a Jerry Lewis retrospective, and they didn't include "The Nutty Professor."

Getting employment is one of the reasons French youths are rioting. They say making older people work two more years before they can collect their government retirement benefits forces more people to remain in an already overloaded workforce. The youth say this will further contract the number of already scarce job opportunities available to them. With France's onerous laws governing employment that you mentioned the youth may be right.

If they hadn't filled their slums with immigrants who are willing to work for dirt, and do the jobs that those youth are "too good to do", then they might have less trouble finding jobs.

Sounds like another country we all know :lol:

To the point that those who oppose it are branded as racists there too.
