2. DC does not contain collectivity and solidarity
3. DB has higher returns, because of
intergenerational solidarity
4. DC requires participant choices, and thus leads to
errors
5. DC is more expensive for it is often executed by
for-profit parties

Interest rate is rightfully low. But perhaps too low?
• The "Yuppie/Nerd Ratio"
compares the number of 25-to
34-year-olds ("Yuppies") to the
number of 45-to 54-year-olds
("Nerds").
• This ratio is said to do a good
job of tracking the demographic
pressures on long term interest
rates.
• Nerds buy bonds for retirement,
Yuppies borrow to buy houses,
cars, cribs, etc.
