[QUOTE="kingOFchester, post: 1178707, member: 11246"] One thing to keep in mind, our pension is a defined pension. If you retire at 55, the dollar amount you walk out with will be the same amount you get when you are 80. You have to factor in inflation. Someone who retired 25 years ago, their dollar is worth almost half of what it is today.
