Had she worked for a non-union company that offered a 401K for that long, she would be making well over that chump change retirement. She now is one of the retired people that live on SS.
Yep. That's one of the benefits I was alluding to about being in charge of things instead of toiling all those years for whatever someone else will give you.
My mom had a high school friend that retired out of the GM plant in OKC (tool and die maker). He got in as soon as it opened and stayed there. His retirement was just insane, he made more retired than I was running a CNC machine during the oil boom with all my OT. It was just nuts.
