Yeah I’ve been subscribing to him for a little while. Super talented kid. He’s on the FOG too, seems like a really nice grounded young man. I think he’s an engineer or something.

Man that kids got some talent! I subscribed.

Just subbed to him. I watched the wooden hex nuts vid, this kid is awesomely crazy. I’m pretty sure he uses more of his brain than I can. Smrt people make me feel dum haha

I probably have a decade on this kid and I’d need two to catch up to him.

Hate to be the one to tell you, but if you have that long…it’ll be a lot longer than that before you reach retirement.

I agree with you a bit. There are a lot of variables between now and then. As long as my union is still in business and I’m working till then and so on. That number is my magic number. I am grandfathered in if the union makes any changes to my pension. At that point I will have 35 years in the union, insurance will be covered 100%for my wife and I. If I make it till then I’m DONE.

If the raise the national retirement age, you’re grandfathered into the current age even if that changes?

I will have to check into that one. I know the monetary terms are not supposed to change. The retirement age for my Local has been 55 for as long as I know.

I do not contribute to social security so I really can’t count on more than a couple hundred at that time but I’ll be 48/49 when I pull the plug. Then? I’ll work at Walmart as a door greeter/puncher 🙂
