Sounds to me as if you just couldn't make it in the private sector doing your job. If you call that planning, I guess, but I don't. Being retired at 60 fucking rocks. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And yes, I’m enjoying my pension. You made the claim you prove it. The public sector can afford to offer defined benefit pensions most private companies cannot. Im glad yours is fully funded, many if not most are not. CTs a perfect example. 2 hours ago, Doomxz600 said: Its called record profits They are too expensive for most private companies to fund.

Again, not sticking up for the guy, but would you like to have a pension in retirement? Are you not going to get one? Seems to me you are more concerned about what others have done to be able to live life in retirement than what you are doing to live life in retirement.

Sure there are many hard working public sector employees but there are more slackers than the private sector as we don't see an exodus leaving to join the private sector.
