QUAD DIPPER
youve heard of a double dipper
thats someone who eg retires from the
military then gets a civil service job and
retires from that job
a double dipper
this is a tshirt that was given to my historian
brother who just turned 65
he had a party not to celebrate his birthday but
to celebrate the fact that he now is a quad
dipper ie
he has qualified for his fourth retirement plan
military, teachers retirement, soon to be social
security and his 403b plan
he is now almost a quad dipper
this didnt just happen
it took hard work as he went through his 20
years of military service-9 years served overseas
after that retirement he got his 2nd bachelors degree
then his masters then his doctorate degree
he then began teaching in college
where he just qualified for their retirement plan
all that was from years of hard work and discipline
he also has paid along the way into the social security
system which he will qualify next year for full benefits
he also has had the discipline through the years to
place money into his 403b plan (similar to a 401k for
teachers or public employees) and also into a
457b plan which is another tax exempt retirement plan
available to those same employees
and wait theres more
he also has placed money into a roth ira
so that makes him a 6 dipper or a seis dipper
it took a lot of financial discipline and foresight and
hard work over the years to accomplish this
remember some of these are available to all of us
401ks roth iras and some the 457bs
we will need to all be this disciplined in the future
we can all learn something from him as some of
our pensions will disappear
we and the future generations cannnot have the
attitude that social security wont be there for us
we have to make sure that the system makes sure
its there as we are the system
we just need to demand of our politicians that it happens
and it fiscally happens
if it fails its our fault for not getting involved and
electing politicians that will do what needs to be done
to protect those protective net programs
those of you that are younger need to be thinking of
these things now and begin now
and to live fiscally responsible lives
good job historian brother
we can all learn from you
of course his cowgirl wife will be the one to benefit
FOOTBALLLLLLLLLL
man i ve a bad hangover today
its a football hangover
i had way too much football yesterday
well thats not possible
rg3 he did good
not bad for a player out of high school that wasnt
highly recruited to be a quarterback but just an athlete
good choice baylor
and washington redskins
maybe he should have been the number one choice in the draft
and then peyton did his peyton thing and beat
the steelers
that was fun to watch
what a good season it will be for football
