Take the initial portion of Profit Sharing value, the amount paid out at the 10% level, and convert it to a pay raise. That value then compounds every year we get a pay raise, increasing in value. Retain the amount above the 10% payout to participate in your description above. Do the math. This is a more valuable approach.
You are right. The math says exactly what you are talking about. But, no. The company wants to insist on JVs and revenue sharing, and this is the way to get our share of that without doing any 'work' ourselves. I wish we could figure out some way to continue to get PS as a retirement vehicle.
