This article consists of analyzing and identifying the concrete conditions of the evolution of the number of pensioners in Romania and of the average monthly pension obtained by these persons. The methodological aspects that define the economic categories and the calculated indicators are presented, in order to clarify and facilitate, for the sake of understanding, by all persons interested in studying this article. The analysis was performed on the total number of pensioners compared to the average pension and, last but not least, to the most complex indicator of results of the economy, the Gross Domestic Product. The two indicators I mentioned, the number of retirees and the average monthly pension, were analyzed on the basis of a simple linear regression function, considering that the average monthly pension also depends on the number of retirees, given that the pension fund is limited, and even if there are legislative enactments that increase these pensions from one period to another, this can sometimes result in the reduction or maintenance of a lower average pension growth rate.
