Was there ever an age limit on FE's? If not, that's a completely different animal.

Some of the pensions these cities are dolling out are eye watering...sometime almost too good to be true. So much so that investigations are done to uncover ridiculously unethical schemes of employees helping each other pump up their W2 and pension benefit. A la having a secret schedule of calling in sick so others will get called in for overtime.
