To be fair I don't see why anyone earning $2ml if they stick around 5 years needs a pension. You shouldn't be hurting for money unless you are a idiot.
Well that's it.... These guys also have full time jobs... as it was described by Pat Kerwin on NFL Sirius.. a lot of them are professionals at their primary occupation E.G. Dr's, Lawyers, etc... They already have retirement and benis at their present employer.
(rant about unions removed)..
