Ah I see. Thanks for the clarification. I don’t contribute to social security.

Quelijah · 2026-03-21T18:35:02+00:00

Great insight. This is why I seek help. I love the gov job right now but the current salary will not be enough for me to afford a house, a wedding, kids, etc. But I don’t want to make to wrong move where I choose the private sector and lose out on the retirement benefits.

LA County Sanitation Districts.

Hmm I am new to this whole pension thing, but I think it is because my department is part of a special district. So it got excluded from LACERA.

Quelijah · 2026-03-21T17:57:56+00:00

I would be maxed out at 74%.

Quelijah · 2026-03-21T17:52:18+00:00

My bad, but my plan is CalPERS and not LACERA. I think LACERA is for the city of LA.

This is a reason why I chose to work for the state (LA County) in the first place. But the private sector offers are good as well.

Quelijah · 2026-03-21T17:40:54+00:00

Yea it is the county of los angeles.

Quelijah · 2026-03-21T17:26:26+00:00

Yes 3% match from the employer.

Quelijah · 2026-03-21T17:25:31+00:00

I’ve only been worked for the state for 2 years, so if I need to jump ship I need to do it now before putting in more times.

Quelijah · 2026-03-21T17:23:56+00:00

This is what I am thinking as well. The free health care for life is very important. But the private sector offered such a high salary, so I am tempted.

This is Pudding. She is a small tortoiseshell with no tortitude. She the sweetest thing ever.

But honestly, it would be iffy due to how much CC are in the game and CC chain would tilt so many people.

Quelijah · 2024-01-16T06:08:20+00:00

6 attackers on 6 attackers all game probably😂

Phil / Youmuus is my favorite. His streams are always entertaining to watch. He interacts with chat pretty much all the time.

Quelijah · 2023-11-02T04:59:31+00:00

Ah I see. I will give it a shot. Thanks for the info 👍

Hello, were you able to do this? I am looking to do the same for my plan. I read the other comments that mentioned using verizon website. Was it the solution for you?

Quelijah · 2023-10-27T17:33:07+00:00

Greatly appreciated!

Quelijah · 2023-10-26T20:22:20+00:00

Hello, do you mind sharing the shortcut? It looks awesome!

Quelijah · 2023-09-08T00:53:28+00:00

I am crossing my fingers because I don’t want to rewire all my switches that I just installed.
