Minimal retired pay - how much in Poland? [10]
Actually, if I recall rightly, Jaruzelski (and the others) had much of the pension restored to them as it was an unconstitutional move to cut their pensions - he's actually getting closer to 9000zl a month these days. There was a cut for ex SB-types, but they tended to acquire things during Communism anyway.
Come to think of it you may be right, I know that the good Generals pension was reduced from 8500 to 4500zl, now when you think about it that's not much for a person holding the greatest power in Poland, in real terms and compared to other leaders retiring in other countries it could only be described as peanuts, retiring military officers would get much, much less, like I mentioned before living on a pension is a hard call in Poland, working on the black market for a few zlotes must be humiliating to say the least.

How much money one needs to retire in Poland for another 50 years?I always wonder how much money would one need to comfortably(normally) retire in Poland for a maximum of 50 years,with a paid off place to live.I am talking of a normal living with a small car to commute esp in Warsaw vicinity.
About 3 mln PLN assuming you need on average 5K PLN per month for various expenses. But it all depends on what you are used to. Oh, and I do not factor in the effect of compound interest here.... in that case the amount would be somewhat lower but pls run your own calculations. :-)
