It is paid attention to the history of the emergence and development of the institute of personal pensions in the USSR.

The author dwells on the letters of request of citizens of the Middle Urals in the commission for the appointment of personal pensions. It proves that citizens who have (as they thought) certain services “to the party and the state” demanded to be given a personal pension. It is stated that personal pensions had a rather high status, were subject to prestige and were valued for the benefits obtained with their help.
