I would have thought you could figure out that we are talking about the NN. Under the NN proposal there won't be a need for personal contributions. But then if you want to remove personal contributions from the mix you need to subtract ALL the contributions made by all the DZr's and that will about halve their 401k's. As far as the 50k initial starting balance.......do you have less than 50k or more than 50k? Any one who has been here a couple of years should have more than that.

All the assumptions I used are waaaaay less than they should be. Guess what.......I just changed the assumed starting balance to $1,000 and the 30 year number is $5,090,515.67. Still well over 5 million dollars.........

You just don't get it. A 25% DC would be HUGE for you young guys and you're beyotching about the senior guys getting a "windfall." I think the windfall is purely in your (the young guys) court.

If you add personal contributions, you have to include all money you plan on using in retirement including IRAs, investment property, etc. These aren't my rules. I've been told many times we aren't allowed to use personal contributions to retirement.

Also, $5M in 30 years will have the same spending power as $2M. That's called inflation.

So you agree.

You have to pass the TA before we can see what’s In the TA.

What are you not getting? I did NOT assume any personal contributions. This has nothing to do with all the other investments you have. I assumed $0 starting balance because you had a hissy fit over it. So, with a $0 starting balance, 30 year investment horizon, annual COMPANY contribution of $50,000 divided over 12 months (because of the proposed increase to DC 25%) and a 7% return comes to $5,082,399.17. If you want to figure out the inflation level go for it...but you need to add 768k to the figure above to account for my low-balling the total investment available for the company to put in now.


As far as your last sentence goes, we both know that is a BS figure. Just saying something doesn't make it true. Prove it. At least I used real figures and was very conservative. All you investment guru's should well out perform 7%.

Agree to what? That guys working here are going to earn more money than guys retired from here? Last time I checked, retired guys don't make the company any money and thus don't earn a paycheck.

Funny, the pilots on Mil leave don’t earn the company any money either.

You don't ever want to change places with a retired guy.

And we don’t know what will happen in the next few decades. We might even be out of job if something really bad happens and delta goes to the crapper.

The current state of the company, doesn’t guarantees the future.

I won’t comment on this subject, but I can see the company dragging their feet for a year or two. That’s about 1,000+ pilots retired...

Profit sharing still shows up after not working.
