Most Russians planned to live on the state pension during their retirement, according to an opinion poll from 2020. The second most common source of planned income was what people saved prior to their retirement. Every fourth Russian had not yet thought about where their finances would come from in that period.
Have you thought about what income would you be living on when you reach the retirement age? If yes, which sources of income do you primarily count on?
The original question was worded by the source as follows: "Задумывались ли вы о том, на какие доходы вы будете жить,когда достигнете пенсионного возраста? Если да, то на какие источники доходов вы, прежде всего, рассчитываете?"
No more than two answers were possible.
The survey was conducted in 173 localities в 59 federal subjects of Russia.
