[quote=Anonymous][quote]The pearl clutching on this thread about not achieving the full pension benefit is pretty strange - what about the opportunity cost of wasting another 5-10 years [b]in a soul-sucking job[/b]? I'm planning to retire after 20 years with the Feds at age 51, and have no qualms about having to ratchet down my retirement spending by 10% as a result.[/quote] This is why work/life balance is so important. In your case, you could "retire" at age 51 and still get another job that is not "soul-sucking" if you are so inclined. If people like their jobs, they may prefer to continue and put more into retirement. There is no one answer. I feel lucky that I like my job. [/quote]
