Hi, I'm Phil. I currently work at GM as a skilled tradesman. My wife and I decided a while ago that we wanted to retire in Florida. She works for an airline, and she wants to work to work 2 years after I retire.
GM has a 30 and out pension for the legacy workers, new hires just get 401k.
I will have my 30 in March, but I am staying until Sept/Oct. This gives me two things......
1. Sept 15th is the end of our contract and the company sometimes offers incentive bonuses to get people out.
2. It will give me enough hours to qualify for any profit sharing for this year.
We sold our house and my wife was able to transfer to Orlando.
I plan to finally join her in Sept. I'm sure I will learn many things here by reading first and asking questions later!
