Saving the money is the easy part. Finding somewhere to put it so it grows is the hard part.
Check with the Pension Fund itself or its website.I called my local and they said 15.
$300 a week for 30 years covers my $3000 a month pension for 13 years and that's with ZERO growth realistically it should prob cover me for 30 years. If they are handling our money right why are all the pensions broke. I'm with barnyard let me opt out I'll make that money grow into much more than the $3000 a month pension.
Some Teamster pension plans are in trouble not because of UPS but because they are joint pension plans meaning that not just UPS employees are in them other union employees from other companies are in them and the other companies haven't been paying there fare share...
You'll grow the money.... You could also lose it all next time the market tanks or your broker could just take you money and send you a fake statement... You don't have to worry about that with a pension...
