pension

Post-career monthly check

A pension is a regular payment made to someone who has retired from work, typically funded by contributions during their working years: She lives on her pension.

Government and employer pensions provide income after age-based retirement.

To pension someone off is to retire them with a pension, sometimes implying they've become useless: They pensioned off the old equipment manager.

In European usage, a pension (pronounced the French way) is a small hotel or boarding house.
