FDA/Cologne
Hey Guys,
I just read a news feed that said that Germany now offers free tuition and some other perks to US students.
Might. That be of interest to anyone considering Cologne with college age dependents ??
Regards,
BG

Just because I am not one of the 12 angry men does not mean that I am some newbie who is wet behind the ears or a management plant. I have been registered on this site eight years longer than you and have twice as many posts, which you could easily have seen by looking to the left.
So let's move on to the relevant discussion about how we make this company a better place to work rather than throwing spears at each other, OK?

Have you looked at this on a spreadsheet? Does ALPA have one?
I played with some numbers, assuming a FO for ten years, maxed out his retirement, average salary of 130,000. Then a CA for 15 years, average salary of 260,000, maxes out his contribution, but no catch up. I came up with $2,445,000 assuming 8% return. There are mutual funds with long term records who meet or exceed that. Sure it goes up and down. That's why you need to be diversified. I don't know what $2.4M gets you after taxes though. I'm not that smart. If you took 6% of that $2.4M a year out, that's roughly $140,000 a year. That's not too bad in retirement.
I get $3.5M if you go to the 16.5% B-fund.

With only a Defined Contribution plan, you should plan to die when the money runs out.
