169.512 citizens received the highest pension in Serbia, 940 dinars, in December last year. According to the PIO Fund, "only about 1,6 percent of the total number of pensioners receive the lowest pensions, i.e. about 28.000 of them. These are those with incomes lower than RSD 18.000

As you know, there are 1,650.000 pensioners in Serbia. According to the amount of pensions, they are divided into three basic categories: those with high, average and those with below average pensions.

According to the statistical report of the Pension Fund for December 2022, about 940 pensioners receive the highest pensions in Serbia - 169.512 dinars. That's 0,05 percent of the total. The next highest amount of pensions are those who receive over 100.000 dinars. There are 20.018 of them, or 1,2 percent.

Below them are about 53.000 citizens of Serbia. They receive between 78.000 dinars, which was the average salary for November, and 108.000 dinars. In percentage terms, there are 3,27 percent of them.

Then: in the category of pensioners who in December received between 33.731 dinars (average pension before the January increase) and 78.000 dinars, about 36 percent.

All others are in the last category and they received up to 33.731 dinars in December. There are about 60 percent of them. After the increase in January of this year, they received up to 37.809 dinars.

The Pension Fund states that there were "only 12,3 percent" of such pensioners in December and that "their pensions at that moment are 18.404 dinars in the case of regular pensions and 14,469 in the case of agricultural ones."

There are lower ones than this.

"However, only about 1,6 percent of the total number of pensioners receive the lowest pensions in Serbia, i.e. about 28.000 of them", according to the data of the PIO fund.

The PIO Fund concludes that "according to these data, the largest number of the oldest citizens falls into the category between the lowest pension and the average, i.e. about 45 percent of them."

In the beginning was virtue.

At the moment when the institutions of the Republic are destroyed, when Vučić's octopus is still alive, when people are disgusted by the injustice and the stench left behind by the Essenes regime, we have, as Machiavelli said, only civic virtue as the fuel with which we can return to the beginning
