Retirement Promises on the Chopping Block?

Imagine working for decades, counting on a comfy retirement, only to find out Congress might yank a chunk of your benefits at the last minute. That’s what’s happening to thousands of federal workers like Michele, who planned her golden years around a promised supplement. If the new bill passes, folks under 57 could lose out on up to $110K—ouch! Lesson: Always have a backup plan for your nest egg, because even government promises can change. #retirement #moneytips #federalworkers #Business

If federal workers want to retire before they're able to draw social security, then they should be prepared to support themselves on their own dime. The supplemental is a perk the rest of Americans don't receive. I can understand the purpose for law enforcement officers or firemen, but why do office workers deserve this generous gift. If you want to retire early, plan ahead and don't expect somebody else to fund your personal choices.
