Why are older pensioners poorer?

Article Abstract:

The relationship between age and income in the UK was examined among men above 65 years of age. The reasons behind the negative correlation was then examined via a long time-series of cross-sectional datasets by initially considering the variations between cohorts, followed by an investigation of the possible influence of differential mortality. The results provided strong evidence that the economic discrepancy for older male pensioners is largely attributable to cohort effects, with time series income increasing with age due to differential mobility.
