Re: 20 yr retirement being phased out?
JD, I think we will be hearing more about this issue as time passes. Industry and the federal government continue to move away from the traditional defined retirement systems; and are embracing the deferred income / matching funds portable retirement plans. As an example, today's soldier gets out at three or four years, has no retirement credit unless he goes into the ARNG or USAR. (Yes this is a simplistic example.) But, as I said, I expect we will see a lot more on this subject as we go along.
