Pensions Swallowed by Rent

  • April 02, 2025
A report was conducted in Kenya targeting retirees by the Retirement Benefits Authority (RBA) as recorded in one of the Kenyan Newspapers. The research sought the answers on what retirees would do differently if given another chance to work again. You will be shocked by the research findings that targeted 975 people and make a wise decision before retirement. Retirement's canvas often reveals a portrait of unfinished landscapes. The report speaks of a widespread longing for earlier harvests: homes built on time, savings grown to abundance, and side streams of income flowing freely. If given the chance to repaint their past, three-quarters of retirees would choose to cultivate a richer, more diverse retirement garden. However, this is not the case for many of them. Many are battling diseases while some have the responsibility to pay their children’s school fees. As a majority now spend their pensions on expenses such as rent, loan repayments, and recurrent expenditure, they lament that they wish they had known better when they were young and energetic. Truly, days have passed and their ability to work has gone down. A number of the retirees advise young people that ‘don’t wait until retirement to start building a home.’ The retirees have gone ahead of us and we ought to learn a lesson. To avoid the lament in the future, we can make superior decisions that will shape out our future in a better way. We can build the homes earlier and invest earlier before the energy depletes.
