Thread regarding AT&T layoffs

Adios

Just stopped by to thank the current employees for keeping the ship afloat long enough for my pension to clear and hit my IRA. I wish you all the best. Severance is a great thing after hitting the MR75. Good luck to you all!

@my If you have 25 or more years and you work in Mobility, the pension is only about $300k to $350k which is about $2300 monthly for single. Less if you choose to leave some for you beneficiaries! It's something, but not much. Lump sum make be your better route.

@jy Pension is NOT fully guaranteed, if T would completely go belly up -- which thankfully is unlikely.

" The PBGC guarantee has a maximum limit. If your promised pension is higher than the federal cap, you could receive less if the plan fails." But most remaining, unclaimed T pensions are far below the PBGC limit. So, you good.

Pension is guaranteed. Great to shed dead weight that doesn't even understand how her pension works...
