Many young people think they will work until they die

ZAP Notícias9 September 2026 at 07:40

A growing portion of Generation Z and millennials are beginning to view retirement as an increasingly distant possibility. In the United Kingdom and other European countries, many young people believe they will have to work for their entire lives. The phenomenon already has a name: NERDs, the English acronym for "Never Ever Retiring Demographic," meaning the population that believes it will never be able to retire. As a result, many of these young people have stopped saving for a pension, questioning the usefulness of doing so when they consider that retirement will never happen. The article warns that this loss of hope in retirement is becoming increasingly common among European youth.

War between Rede Expressos and FlixBus affects Lisbon connections

The legal conflict between Rede Expressos and FlixBus over access to the Sete Rios terminal in Lisbon has intensified, with the German carrier accusing the Portuguese rival of blocking compliance with a court ruling from March 2026 that ordered its access to the station. Rede Expressos denies the accusations, classifying them as "false and defamatory," and maintains that the terminal has reached its physical capacity, making it impossible to allocate the 96 daily schedules sought by FlixBus. Faced with the impasse, the German company has moved forward with an enforcement action of the ruling and a criminal complaint against those responsible for managing the facility, while users await a resolution that balances commercial competition with the safe operation of a key node of mobility in Lisbon.

SAD do Benfica achieves profit of…

Benfica's SAD achieved a net profit of 19.1 million euros in the 2025/26 financial year, the second consecutive year with positive results, although below the 34.4 million from the previous year. The growth in recurring revenue, the control of operational expenses, and the favorable evolution of player rights explain the performance. Equity capital strengthened to 135.5 million euros, while the operating result stood at 32.4 million. Excluding the player rights component, operating revenue reached 214.4 million euros, a 7% decline justified by the absence of extraordinary Club World Cup revenue.
