[QUOTE="brett636, post: 513616, member: 249"] I can't disagree with you there. Those guys at the top have every right to do what they wish with their vacations. Although those same guys at the top are the ones closest to retirement, and if they can't make it month to month by taking a vacation where they get fewer hours than they normally would then they have a serious problem. Once they make the decision to retire they need to figure out how to live on 40% or less of their current take home pay, and their poor financial decisions now will hurt them when they leave their buildings for the last time. Case in point, my sister has a friend whose father was a feeder driver for a number of years and ended up retiring. I am not certain how many years he worked, but both him and his wife(was a stay at home wife before retirement) had to go out and get jobs just to keep themselves afloat financially. They didn't adjust their lifestyle from the $1200+ a week(net pay) he was bringing home to the $3000ish/month(probably less) pension he was receiving. [/QUOTE]
