I you can still command a high salary because of experience and lack of younger workers, it’s hard to walk away - espeically if you don’t know how much you need to retire.

I get six figures, plus five percent 401K match, plus twelve percent cash-value pension. That’s hard to turn down.

Jeepers! That's better than the $40/hr the illegals were being paid in New York for 'parity' with Union workers.

Too bad I just moved to Minneapolis: less than 6 figures, but 6% 401(k) match and 2% pension, to kick in after 2 years service.

Prayers up for the victims and families of the I-35 bridge collapse. Last night CNN had a graphic at the bottom of the screen that the 35-W bridge connected Minneapolis and St. Paul (sighs heavily).

No cheers, unfortunately.
