Hi Kraftyone here. I am already retired (early at 50). Approaching 55 and now eligible for either a pension of $3099 per month or $500,000 lump sum. Current assets = 1.5 million (401k, savings, portfolio) and other income (from trust) of $150,000 +. I am leaning toward the pension for two reasons; I won't have to manage it and, based on my research, it seems like a pretty good deal (better than I can do on my own.
Thanks to all
