tulla toimeen eläkkeellä

to get by on a pension

To manage financially after working years.

🌍

문화적 배경

The 'pensioner discount' (eläkeläisalennus) is a huge part of 'tulemalla toimeen'. Many elderly people can afford a better lifestyle because of significant discounts on trains, buses, and museums. Finns often have a 'kesämökki' (summer cottage). For many, 'tulla toimeen eläkkeellä' means having enough money to maintain the cottage, which is seen as a basic right rather than a luxury. There is a strong cultural emphasis on 'omavaraisuus' (self-sufficiency). Asking for help from children is often a last resort, making 'tulla toimeen' a point of pride. The 'takuueläke' (guarantee pension) ensures a minimum level of income, which is the baseline for 'tulla toimeen' in the Finnish welfare state.
