Police don't pay into SS so they cannot collect that as a pension. My father was a Detroit cop, but started in the late 20’s and retired in the 1950’s at the age of 50. He became self employed, hanging new storm doors, windows etc for a couple of companys. He paid into SS by law then. He stopped at the age of 65 and collected SS, and his retirement from the city. It was the city that made the contract of 25 years and out if you wished. Those today will have next to nothing when they retire. No city pension and not eligible for SS. That sucks.

So are there ex cops laying in the street starving to death? Just asking?
