Some elderly people do not have pensions in their later years, especially in rural areas. When they are 60 years old, they only have 100 yuan a month in pensions. But the elderly in cities are different. They paid pensions when they were young. With five social insurances, one fund or some social security, in your old age, you can receive an appropriate amount of pension every month, which can amount to 7,000 to 8,000 yuan.
There are some relatively ordinary old people who have a pension of about 2,000 to 3,000 in their later years. The difference between whether an elderly person has a pension or not is really big. A 67-year-old old man said: In their old age, their life is really different.
Uncle Luo:
I am 67 years old, an old man from the countryside. Now I am over 60 years old, and I still insist on going out to do small jobs on construction sites every day, and I earn 100 yuan a day. , while others were enjoying the blessings of their children and grandchildren at home at the age of 67, I was basking in the sun and wind at the construction site.
I am a hard-working old man in the countryside. I have two sons and a daughter. They are all married. My son and his family have bought a house in the city and settled down.
In my later years, my wife and I lived in our hometown. Because my son and his family had a lot of pressure on their lives after they got married, I was embarrassed to ask them to pay for their living expenses. Without financial income, I can only insist on going out to work outside, at the age of 67 in our rural area.
Many people are still working outside instead of enjoying their old age here. In our rural areas, there is no old age to talk about. They all live until they are old and work hard until they are old enough. until it moves.
My mother gave birth to 4 children. I am the eldest in the family, and I have younger sisters and younger brothers. I have shouldered the responsibility and obligation to take care of them since they were young. I am the oldest in the family. I have eaten the least and worked the most since I was a child. I have had the responsibility and obligation to take care of them since I was 10 years old. It is said that I am like this when other people's children take charge of the family. In our era, there were no books.
I have been working outside with people in the village since I was 10 years old. I have worked hard for most of my life, and now I have finally gotten married and started a business. My younger brother was pretty good at that time, because at that time I went out to earn money for them to study, and their education level was also higher, with two younger brothers and a younger sister.
They all went to college, and now their lives have become better. It is very easy to find a job after graduating from college. Moreover, the company also provides five insurances and one fund, and there is also a pension after retirement in old age. , but I am different. I have always lived in the countryside, doing hard work, without five insurances and one fund, and I will have no pension after retirement.
My younger brother and sister’s lives are very different. They are all married, and are now preparing to be in their 60s. Now they can receive a pension of 3,000 yuan a month, and they can take care of their children and do housework at home. , when I’m bored, I go for a walk, do Tai Chi, and square dance, and I’m very free every day.
They live very well in the city. Although they are almost the same age as me, they are much younger than me. Because they live better in the city. People are also raised to be white and fat, and they look particularly young, but I am different. I am 67 years old this year, but it makes people look like they are 70 or 80 years old. Every time I come back for the New Year and the holidays, they say that I am aging very fast.
I also know that I look old, but there is nothing I can do about it. I am exposed to the sun and wind at the construction site every day, and I run around for three meals a day. It is strange that I am not old. It is not like how they live so well in big cities. , every day I just take care of the children, do housework, and dance in the square. Every day is a joy.
In my later years, I didn’t have food to eat even if I didn’t work. They didn’t work in their later years and still received two to three thousand yuan a month. This kind of life is envied by everyone. I also want to live a life like theirs, but I have different fates.
Actually, I want to say that there is a big difference between the elderly with pensions and those without pensions in their later years. My only wish in my later years is that my wife and I will be healthy. My biggest wish is that our family can be together. I don’t ask for great fortune, but only for peace and happiness as a family.
Conclusion:
There is still a difference between the lives of urban people and rural people. People who are used to living in cities do not look old because they live very relaxed and comfortable lives every day. When you reach the age of 60, you retire at home and take care of your children and do housework, unlike us rural people who live to be old. Being exposed to the sun and rain every day, there is no comparison between the lives of rural people and urban people.
There is a saying that makes people more angry than others. I can only accept my fate. Without my younger brothers and sisters, they are not so lucky to be able to live in the city and enjoy a good life.
