What kind of pension do celebrities receive and is it due to those who went to live abroad?

It's no secret that pension It is very different from the amount that ordinary pensioners receive. Modern Russian pop is teeming with singers and singers, many of whom have additional titles and awards. This also affects the amount of money that the state is obliged to pay them. But what are these amounts, are they fair? We'll deal with it today!



Russian stars earn decent money. For example, they get them for people listening to their songs on various streaming platforms. Also play a role watching videos on YouTube, selling merch and, of course, touring.

When you get a lot of money, you have to pay the same taxes to the state. But what does it offer in return when a famous artist retires? In this matter, much depends on whether a particular singer or singer has any titles or awards.



The pension of artists who have neither titles nor awards ranges from 12,700 to 16,257 rubles. For example, such payments are received by singer Mikhail Muromov, actor Efim Shifrin, as well as TV presenters Rosa Syabitova and Regina Dubovitskaya. At the same time, they all continue to work, so do not think that famous pensioners have to survive on such amounts of money.

Mikhail Muromov could get more, but his personal account still drips interest from listening to songs. And he continues to pay contributions to the state based on his income.



According to the data from the Internet, Lolita, without titles and awards, receives a pension of 23,200 rubles. The singer continues to release songs and videos, and she regularly gives concerts. So her income certainly exceeds the amount of pension payments.

Soviet and Russian writer Larisa Rubalskaya receives 33 thousand rubles. Only one thousand more receives the zoologist and TV presenter Nikolai Drozdov. The same pension for showman Dmitry Dibrov.

Receiving the title of Honored and People's Artist, the celebrity wins an additional 30 thousand to the standard pension. For example, actor Alexander Pankratov-Black, pop singer Roxana Babayan and TV presenter Angelina Vovk receive about 47 thousand rubles. But actress Tatiana Vasilyeva and actor Yuri Stoyanov are charged 60 thousand.

Among other things, there is such a thing as a surcharge for orders. A vivid example of this is actor Alexander Shirvindt and actress Tatiana Doronina. At one time they became knights of the Order "For Merit to the Fatherland". And that gives them 415% of their social pension. From April 1, 2023, the amount is 28,751 rubles.



Cavaliers of the Order of Merit to the Fatherland of the II degree receive 330 percent of the social pension - 23,606 rubles. For example, this is pianist Alexander Pakhmutova and actor Oleg Strizhenov.

But most interestingly, artists who have emigrated abroad can continue to receive pensions from the Russian state. That's the law! Actor Dmitry Nazarov has long lived in France. But this does not prevent him from regularly receiving 54 thousand Russian rubles.



Instagram / @alla_orfey Russia is also not deprived of domestic stars-foreign agents. So, the famous musician Andrei Makarevich receives about 59 thousand rubles, and Boris Grebenshchikov – 20 thousand.

Alla Pugacheva, who recently emigrated to Israel, used to receive about 50-60,000. According to one source, the diva gave the money to her disabled fan. It was also reported that the singer was deprived of his pension because of her controversial views regarding Russia. I wonder if that's true.

How much money do ordinary pensioners get? While the stars rejoice, pensioners cry. The size of the standard pension from June 1, 2022 in Russia is 7 220 rubles and 74 kopecks. At the same time, the subsistence minimum from January 1, 2023 does not exceed 15,669 rubles for able-bodied people, 12,363 rubles for pensioners and 13,944 rubles for children.



A logical question arises: what should older people do if they receive significantly less money than they need to simply survive? It's not an easy topic, and we're very interested in what you think about it. Boldly share your thoughts in the comments!
