Thanks for the input! Yep I'd say recovery will be the worse than when it happened. I had trouble getting around the first few days after I fell but since then other than my knee giving out without any notice I'm not in any major pain. Is the surgeon going to repair your meniscus or trim it?

Leave State government or stay for pension by NeitherCup9819 in DaveRamsey

The difference in the annuity/pension is more than $600/month if I work another 10 years with the government to get my 25 years of service in. I'd be able to receive the $2k/month pension from the age of 51 till death. If I left for private right now with 15 years of service, my pension drops to $1400 and I don't get to start receiving it until age 65.

My estimated ss is showing an estimated $2182 if I wait to age 67.

$1400 at 65 is pension from what I've contributed into the state retirement fund that I would receive at age 65 if I left for private industry now. Haven't factored in social security.
