[QUOTE="vantexan, post: 5079353, member: 24302"] OK, let's say that the company is more generous these days. When I retired we got a packet in the mail instead of having a website. Nowhere in that packet even hinted at increasing the traditional pension by waiting past 60. But I digress. You posted what you would get if you waited. If you intend to elect the survivor benefit then you intentionally led us to believe that you would get more than what that option offers. What you showed is for singles or if a spouse signs off on not getting a survivor benefit. And has the biggest payout. A 100% survivor benefit greatly reduces the monthly payment. I'm assuming you are going to leave your wife a benefit if you die first so you intentionally tried to deceive us. Guess you figured no one would look at it close enough and you could crow about how much better you're doing than the rest of us. Just be sure to read the fine print because FedEx can't always be trusted either. [/QUOTE]
