How about another option.

Had a good pension, but taken away.

Fedex-

A plan- Max of 50% of up to $260,000. The 50% accrues at 2% per year. Survivor benefits do cause that figure to be reduced.

B plan- 6%

401K- Traditional plan with a company match of $500 per year.

If the age 65 rule goes through my bet is that the B plan will go away. The IRS will take one look at the new age rule and snap that bad boy right out from under us.

Do I get to vote again in a few months, when my DC plan is gone?
