Osama bin Laden is dead

I've been paying into SS and medicare for my working life, and frankly I don't expect to see a single dime of it, which is why I'm making other plans.

Ponzi schemes eventually fail, even if they're sponsored by the government.

There's that pessimist side of you talking again. As a Postal Worker you
will have SS and a Government pension that you'll draw from, right?

And it only makes sense for everyone to also save, invest, and take other
measures to help themselves before they get to retirement.

As a FERS retiree, i will have a small (damned small) annuity payment, SS (yeah, right) and my 401-k equivalent.

I will also (as military retiree) be collecting a military pension at 60.

The only portions I actually count on are the military pension and the TSP.
