Sorry if I sound irritated, but this is a big beef with me.

it's all relevant,
Married couple as federal employees, should equal out to 62-65 percent of high 3 years salaries, if federal CSRS and stay till manditory retirement age 56, $13k is on the lower end.... FAA anyway... no tax breaks but goverment does pay a portion of insurance and will into retirement.
stop and think about it ....used to much more funds a year and soon only half the original salary, a little scary.
Its all what your used to ......
But going back as a contract worker....not gonna happen....
staying till the manditory for the higher percentage...then its time for fun...
