[QUOTE="beentheredonethat, post: 1080631, member: 4886"] One last note... Let's say you hire a general contractor to build your house at a cost of 250,000. He based the price on his direct costs, plus his cost of insurance, his costs for materials etc etc etc. Well, you move into house everything is great. Then a few years later the general contractor comes to you and says.. well I know we agreed to 250K for your house, but my 401K took a dive in the market. So I can't afford to stay retired like I had planned. I need you to pay me 25K more to help me out in retirement. After all, you are doing well, you were even able to add an addition, you have a nice car, you can afford it. Would you help him? I realize this example is a bit over the top, but a deal is a deal, and UPS lived up to it's deal that was negotiated. [/QUOTE]
