Early Retirement Number guesses?
#51
I saw the same thing over on the b!tch and gripe... UFB that "medical costs" are being thrown out there as a reason not to retire.
$120k a year A fund and many years in left seat to prepare for life beyond. We got into this knowing that 60 should be the target and now medical is the next excuse for poor planning. $10k a year or less.... REALLY!?!?

Heard that there were lots of tables for picture signing in the ASC. Anyone count them up?

Be helpful if someone could tell you just what the medical costs are, they can't. You will either get billed retroactively for UPS's costs over their contractual limit, or go to the free market which is also an unknown for the next few years. Compare that to dropping trips, 5 weeks of OCV with the slide, calling in sik, and being a general pita to have a part time job and it becomes clearer.

Captains since 1988, should have major coin. Divorce or not. Some small Ins. premium while waiting until medicaid is the lamest excuse one can make.

Not in that range yet so don't quote me on the number, but something around 6500 a year/family member (max 3) to go buy your own OR take that, stay in the company plan, and after the year they will bill you for the amount over that their insurance costs are per participant.

There will be three pushes, the one that we just had, and I haven't seen any official numbers, and then one in October when the 88 guys get their 30 years of credit. If those guys can hang on a little longer, it makes sense for them to wait until January so that they can get their vacation, sick, etc. paid out in a low income tax year, bidding vacation early so that they can get the 5 hour a day payout under OCV.
