I know a dude who sat on his ass in a Firehouse for 20 years and retired in his early forties with a 6 figure pension..
Let me guess: disability is involved. Thats the Firehouse scam here. Its always back problems caused by lifting gurneys. Our local FPD is rife with 40 something year old guys being disabled and leaving with full pensions of over $80,000 a year.
Then they go on to run landscaping or others businesses owned by the wife.

This guy (from Maryland) is going for his second nice pension. He's about 10 years in with the local PD dispatch (Florida). 10 more and he retires on a second pension... so he'll be making in pensions what some Fortune 500 CEOs make in salary.
Apparently, the pension business is more lucrative than landscaping.
