[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I envy all the people with a pension. I would love to retire early, but I don't have enough savings (am 55 and we live a long time in my family, lots of late 90 folks, so I would need my savings to cover me for about 40-ish years). As it is I pray I can stay employed to 65. I have never been unemployed but have been in do-gooder roles so not paid a lot. I have $1.1mil in retirement accounts and about $400K in equity. House will be paid off in six years. [/quote] A pension has been so helpful to my mother who was widowed early. My father’s company officially retired him at 50 years old right before he died of cancer. Forty years later at 90 years old my mother still receives a monthly pension and paid health insurance. Their house was paid for. She was always a stay at home mother and is still at home thanks to a generous company. They are a rare thing now. [/quote]
