[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Yes, pensions eventually die, but to the degree that [b]they preserve withdrawals of other assets, they increase that wealth. So, yes, pensions are an asset[/b], but their lifetime is uncertain. Of course, you can calculate a value based one’s life expectancy or you can think of its value as the growth of other assets that would have otherwise reduced to support your current living. [/quote] Bullshit. That's like saying if I spend less money in retirement than my 401k would permit it's an "asset." That's not how it works.[/quote] NP here....you sound bitter. I don't have a pension but I know someone who gets about $70K per year pension inflation adjusted and with survivor benefit. I see it as an asset as it pays out $$ which could be close to $2m for this person who is only aged 55. I sure wish I had it myself.[/quote] Not bitter at all. But it's not an asset for net worth purposes.[/quote]
