I think a lot of the people sticking around at one job are the ones with pensions.
You need portable pension plans that move with you job to job and accumulate nonetheless, as we have in the Netherlands
In the US, people working up through the late nineties got pensions specific to whatever company an employee works for. Now there just aren't pensions for any workers.
But hey at least they came up with this brilliant retirement plan where you can gamble your salary on the stock market instead /s
I think it's shit that it's like this however not being tied down to a job you hate is nice.
