For several days, the Network's users are actively discussing the size of the scanty pension of Alla Pugacheva, whose theme she raised at the wedding of her senior grandson Nikita. The prima donna, in her humorous manner, advised the newlyweds to rely only on themselves and not to expect material help from her:
"My pension is small, but I'll stretch a year!".
Kobzon commented on the words of Pugacheva
Journalists immediately picked up this phrase and carried it to the masses. The most meticulous counted that the prima donna's pension of the Russian stage is about twenty thousand rubles a month. This figure did not agree with Joseph Kobzon, who also considered it necessary to join the discussion. He said that the meager sums that Pugachev received for her performances during the Soviet era and on which she was counted a pension were repeatedly subjected to a corresponding tariffication. Especially Alla Borisovna put extra charges for the title People's Artist of the USSR and as a liquidator of the Chernobyl nuclear power plant accident.
The size of Kobzon's pension is 52 thousand rubles, since he is a deputy of the State Duma and oversees the Trans-Baikal District.
The public negatively perceived the complaints of Prima Donna to a small pension
Pugacheva's complaints about the small amount of social payments caused irritation in most of Russia's population. Despite the fact that the actress's pension is really small, everyone understands that she is not the main source of income for the Diva. It is enough to recall New Year's ethers, because of the excessive presence of Alla Borisovna in which even a serious scandal arose. For several years, the singer has been listed among the richest Russian celebrities according to the Forbes version and today her condition is estimated at about $ 100 million.
How do they live on a small pension of Pugacheva's colleague
For comparison, the pension of Yuri Antonov and Lev Leshchenko is 15 thousand rubles., Edita Pyekhi - about 10 thousand rubles., Ilya Reznik - 12 thousand rubles. In the same Leshchenko is the owner of the furniture business and the head of the Theater of Variety Performances. He regularly sends donations for the sponsored orphanage and is the founder of his own charitable foundation.
Yury Antonov has repeatedly stated that he is able to provide himself with a decent old age, unlike millions of Russian old people who really live below the poverty line.
Joseph Kobzon each New Year sends gifts to 10,000 children residing in the Transbaikal District entrusted to him.
