Even a solo B fund larger than that has many unforeseen pitfalls, and inherent assumptions that may not prove true in the long run

You mention the company would be "saving money" in 10 years --- seems like they are thinking strategically

I would encourage all new hires to think the same way

But of course, they aren't on property yet
we don't know what they are offering and won't unless we talk. That is my point. My point about saving money, Ups got improvements to their A Plan by doing things to get around the PBGC rules. Win win for the pilots and the shareholders.
