I got one today, but a slightly different situation. It's a lump sum offer for DH's pension, which I started receiving when I was 50 (am now 53). It's a little over $10k a year, and they offered me $175k, which seems to be a terrible offer (seems like they made it as though I am older than 65).
I have no heirs, so don't really care about survivors losing out on it. And I have my own pension (from the same company) on tap when I turn 65.
I have looked at these two pensions, along with SS, starting with survivor benefits at 60 and my own at 70 as a nice safety net should my nest egg go south.
Am I thinking about it right? At the very least, I think I should wait and see if they ever sweeten the offer.
