If it is properly funded by both sides and properly invested pension funds work well. The problem is when one side or the other or both do not make contributions. Jusr saying.

Sadly, the only way out of situations like these has historically been very, very high inflation - so that a $70,000/year pension in 2024 won’t even heat the house.
