I guess you will need to wish until 2018 to find out.

When you do, please let Scratch know, as he does not have a clue as to when he should retire.

Back to my ? Has anybody heard if ups will honor that agreement .or do they even have to , since the law has changed that made them cover it. !

Depends what the next contract says. If it say yes, then they will, no, then no

Are you jealous that when he does retire, he will probably have more money, better pension, and an overall better quality of life than you will when you go?

I love the guys that won't retire. Leaves the fund stronger for the rest of us.

I used to think like that ---when the plan still had some $$$ in it. Now I've moved on to trying to convince people to not draw early SS for the same reason.

It's a pyramid scheme.

Treat the pension as a bonus. If you get any money you can use it on extras but have enough from other sources to make sure you will have enough to get by on. The big unknown is healthcare and how much everyone will end up paying.

and a piggy bank for the government

SS would be fine if the government would run it the way it was first set up. Now they use it as a piggy bank for other things. Also if they tightened up the rules so all the dead beats who say they can't work couldn't get on the gravy train. SS Disability is a joke.
