The pension amount of Jürgen Drews continues to be a topic of conversation. Now, Monika Gruber has also revealed how much she expects to receive from the statutory pension insurance.
Cabaret artist Monika Gruber shared in her podcast “Die letzten Monikaner” how much pension she will receive in the future. “I’m fine, I am secured. I recently checked. I will receive €578,” she joked in the latest episode during a conversation with co-host Andreas Hock. The two discussed this topic after Gruber learned that pop singer Jürgen Drews allegedly receives only around €300 in pension.
This information was revealed earlier this month by Joelina Drews, the daughter of the schlager star. On the podcast “Drews Cordalis Petry – Kids Club,” which she co-hosts with Lucas Cordalis and Achim Petry, she mentioned, “He (her father) started paying into his pension very late. Accordingly, he now has a pension of—I’m not sure of the exact amount—let’s say it’s around €200 to €300 per month.”
Gruber Offers Help to Jürgen Drews
In light of these numbers, Hock pointed out that Gruber will receive almost double the pension compared to Drews. “I would say, why don’t you offer him your help?” he joked. Gruber seemed open to the idea, responding, “I can do that.” However, they concluded that Drews likely has “other means” to be well off.
Joelina also clarified this in the podcast “Drews Cordalis Petry – Kids Club,” saying, “My dad has provided very well for his age. My parents are not struggling financially; they are doing well. There are various opportunities for self-employed individuals to invest in things they can live off.” The “King of Mallorca” has been facing health challenges recently. He was last seen in public in Munich using a walker.
