Life From a Relatively New Hire at ATI
#81
Why this insistence of retirement money over money today with a lower retirement contribution? I have taken my money and contribute the max to the 401 every year. Once max is met the rest goes into other revenue bearing vehicles. Market is down? My properties keep me stable. Diversity in retirement income is where it is. My retirement is set and I am debt free. Money I make now is banked for a rainy day or, if enough for a huge house on the lake paid for in cash when I retire.

Spoken like a true Hete “A wipe”. My defined benefit annuity pays for it all. Will never touch 401 until required by law. But you will never know because ATI pilot group sold out so cheap. The robber barons must love you.

MC, mj is K4, not ATI. Still his response to A-trash was flawed in that he (A-trash) wasn't fixating on retirement, but merely highlighting one aspect in conjunction with work rules that would enable a better QOL.
If one has a better retirement plan, and better work rules, one doesn't have to work extra days for extra $$ to make up for retirement shortfall, plus have more time off to enjoy the things that the greater disposable income confers on you. Sounds like a good recipe for good QOL.
Some people fixate on pay rates too much.

[QUOTE=CallmeJB;2722039]The opposite of online...as in not going to work. Visiting famly..vacation etc. The company flying I do requires the company to airline me into and out off position as a rule on my 1st and last work days.
I kinda thought that would trip up a few slow ones ...

Majority of people on the scab list are either retired or dead. If ATI pilots are all scabs, why aren't ATI pilots on the list LOL. Nobody recognized the "strike" because nobody cares.
