Some say that because many people are living much longer, the age at which people retire from work should be raised considerably. To what extent do you agree or disagree?

Thanks to the technological and medical breakthroughs, people who have serious illnesses

a long-lasting argument

among people about whether the government should push the retirement age to a higher level. From my perspective, I totally agree with

this

suggestion.

First

and foremost, it is beneficial for individuals to lengthen their work period. One of the visible advantages is that the senior workers would be able to earn more to support their families’ livings. There is a fact that the pension that a senior citizen receives is much lower than their official wage.

workers, will be able to maintain not only a sound mind but

also

a happy and meaningful life when talking to and sharing experiences with younger colleagues.

Secondly

, raising retirement age could benefit the society as a whole, especially in terms of financial matter. Every year, the number of citizens retiring increases dramatically while the figure for those who are at working ages falls significantly.

Consequently

, the government has to spend a huge amount of national budget on pension annually.

Besides

, the increasing number of pensioners has put

Therefore

, permitting people to retire later at their ages could not only ensure the national
