Its the Holiday Season and bedtime want to see nurses making the christmas cake but not for her family selling these cakes is just one of the many ways the 62 year old pensioner tries to make ends meet. She also fixes clothes like other pensioners and her low Income Neighborhood but at the has to keep working because after 35 years of factory work her monthly retirement check is 133. 00 well below chiles poverty line. You put him on the same street there are 4 grandparents in there 83 and 3 still work the other is too ill and she lay retirements nothing to look forward to. Who lives in an upper middle class area agrees she retired at the beginning of last year after working 37 years 1st as a nurse and then as a University Professor with a masters degree she used to make nearly 2000. 00 a month.

So in chile the suicide rate for elderly people has soared and one of the prime reasons is because they no longer have enough money with which to survive amid all the protests the government has actually raised the state pension subsidy but even after doubling that subsidy for people over the age of 80 it is still nowhere near a minimum wage at a time in life when people have greater expenses for medicine and for doctors. The governments offer to partially compensate for the a. F.
