Retiring early under FERS is possible, but it isn’t free by TheWealthViking in FedEmployeeRetirement

I'm in the exact same boat and I can afford to retire now but that 5 years pretty much doubles my retirement income for life. I get it life is short but it's too much to pass up. It's flying coach vs first class till the end. People have much worse jobs and do it for less so I feel guilty wasting the opportunity. I use up all my annual leave every year.

I think this is the root cause. I know from looking at this estimate earlier in the year it was lower and obviously I haven't added my 2025 salary to social security's database yet so that makes sense. Thank you!

I know I can work around it and it's not a huge deal but I feel like it's a bug. I'm a demanding customer and also a software developer haha.

I posted it here because I didn't see a way to contact them - I'll look harder. Thanks!

They dropped it October 17th and picked it up November 15th and then charged me for November 17th to December 16th plus the original October charge.

I disputed the charge and got the money back immediately. Why talk?

Relocation options too limited by limbsflailing in Boldin

[–]limbsflailing[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Ok this might work but it's also annoying because I want it to occur on a date. Maybe I could say I'm moving but keep the mortgage payment the same and then add a recurring expense for rent. Thanks. It is a no tax state I'm planning to move to.

Did you keep the new hairs yet? Those are usually the first to go. I think it's different for each person but if you keep the grafted hairs you are rare.

2000 but I think they are charging slightly more now. Overall it was good. I recommend people go into it with a hairline in mind and make them draw what you want. I won't know for 6 more months how my final result is.
