Pay me more now. I'll save up for a nice used 40-foot diesel pusher motor home. Nat Parks, here I come. Or a nice ketch or trawler. I'll buy FC tickets for trips to Hawaii and EU.
Google the number of ATP's in the US. Then, Docs, Attys, etc. SA travel? AYFKM?
Your board year gets adjusted to keep your years of service the same. So if you retire a 25 year employee, you’ll always be a 25-year employee. If the date didn’t change after retiring, someone who was hired in 1980 and worked ten years would go ahead of someone hired in 1982 and put in 20.
