Sounds smart to me. Congrats
No problems with the pension since I have other assets. Surprisingly though, my taxes have increased but that is because I have been moving regular IRA funds to my Roth IRA. As most of you know at 70 1/2 you have to take IRA distributions annually. That is the age I plan to start take SS Benefits so the taxes on both of those will hit hard. Any monies you can get in Roth IRA's now will help later.
Yeah I'm very happy about the decision to leave early. 35 years of flying freight was enough.
