That would track with the numbers given, because over 30 years, United's numbers alone only give you $157k per year of total compensation, which of course is way way low.
Has to be retirement or something else...
I got hired at 34. Been here 6 years. Made $1.1m total. Add in $260k to retirement and $73k in profit sharing (30% of the total earnings). I have 24y6mo left if I want. Assuming it takes 4 more years to upgrade (I doubt it will), that's 20 yrs in the left seat. Assuming current CBA rates til I quit and 4 more years to upgrade with a avg of 110 tfp/mo (I work a lot, so it'll be more)....I'd be looking at total career earnings of around $9m with $2.7m put into retirement (prob more than that but I used the 30%).
