Louis-Ferdinand Céline
“Death after all is only a matter of a few hours, a few minutes, but a pension is like poverty, it lasts a whole lifetime. Rich people are drunk in a different way, they can't understand this frenzy about security. Being rich is another kind of drunkenness, the forgetful kind. That, in fact, is the whole point of getting rich: to forget.”
Louis-Ferdinand Céline, Journey to the End of the Night

Ben Elton
“You're mugging old ladies every bit as much if you pinch their pension fund”

Jeffrey Archer
“..each ministry has an allocation of money to spend on projects agreed to by the government.
Every Secretary of State is acutely aware that his tenure of office maybe very short, so he picks out a major contract for himself from the many available.
It's the one way to ensure a pension for life if the government is changed overnight or the minister simply loses his job.”
Jeffrey Archer, A Quiver Full of Arrows

Agatha Christie, Murder in the Mews

Sari  Gilbert
“.. Italian journalists (like members of the Italian parliament) are among the best paid in the world. ... By law, all journalists get not only the extra 13th month bonus in December, but a 14th month paycheck in June. When you start out, you nevertheless get 26 vacation days a year...plus five days of personal leave. After five years, your annual vacation days increase to 39 plus five days, and after 15 years to 35 days (plus five). Abs if you work for a lifetime, which means 35 years of social security contributions to INPG, you’ll end up with a pension that is pretty close to your final year’s salary.”
Sari Gilbert, My Home Sweet Rome: Living (and loving) in Italy's Eternal City

Steven Magee
