I got a hugh jazz letter from Ilmarinen today... apparently if you go work at 16 you don't accrue jack until 23 anyways, so why work. Luxurious 555 euros - I think I need to work a few years more.

I noticed this, too, and don't get why retirement payments don't begin with the first salary payment.

Nowadays they do. We are just too old.. (Though I was lucky and did not start my working career until age 24, my mother told me I have to work the rest of my life anyways, and guided me to have long summer vacations as long as I can..)
