Funding retirement in an inverted age pyramid is not a theoretical problem. Germany is facing this problem already and it is going to get much, much worse in the next 10 years.

As a side note, this inverted age pyramid aligns partially with a unbalanced power distribution as old people outvote younger generations and their interests by a wide margin.

Yeah. I didn't mean to imply this is only a future problem, just that it will most likely eventually affect the entire global population.
