It is clear that confidence in income from Labor Insurance old-age benefits and in retirement payments and pensions is not high. Expectations of children's support are even lower. Obviously the old adage "raise children to provide against old age" is no longer operative. The result of all this: almost 80 % of workers expect the bulk of their post-retirement living expenses to be covered from their own individual savings.
由此可知，勞工對於勞保老年給付、退休金等收入信心並不高，對子女供養的期待更低，顯見「養兒防老」已不起作用；結果近 8 成的重心都放在勞工的個人儲蓄上。
