So...How's Your Retirement Plan Coming? Weiner...

[AgeOfEnlightenmentSCP]

...has a Congressional pension worth an estimated $1.12 million. Not bad for how many years of working at spending the money others have to actually work for.

Hey, so how’s your pension doing?
ROLL CALL: While Rep. Anthony Weiner may no longer have the benefit of Congress’ generous health care plan once he resigns, he will still be able to collect his pension and other benefits that could total more than $1 million during his lifetime.

According to an analysis of his available benefits by the National Taxpayers Union, the New York Democrat’s pension and a savings plan lawmakers have access to similar to a 401(k) could be worth $1.12 million to $1.28 million.

At 46, Weiner will not be eligible for his pension for another decade, at which point he could begin drawing a reduced rate of $32,357 a year, according to NTU. If he waits until age 62 to begin drawing his pension, he will receive his full benefits, or $46,224, according to NTU’s calculations.

What's a pension?

he will receive his full benefits, or $46,224

Being a millionaire ain't what it used to be. I think he will be eiligble for food stamps with that income.

Well his wifey-pooh works for the state department...she must be pulling down $200,000.
Anthony Weiner does not have financial problems.
His meltdown was a very sad situation.

He will if she dumps his sorry ass.

She is like a super-model with brains. I hope she dumps him. But, probably not - they rarely do. He'll be on MSNBC in 18 months.

Yeah, well, that is to be seen...

I don't think she will. Evidently she was aware of the behavior and yet married him anyway.

His apartment in NY and taxes will eat up most of his annual pay so it is not going to be as easy for him as one might think. The bulk of his money he cannot touch for some time. I also doubt his wife makes $200,000 in the state department. Keep in mind they most likely are paying for two residences one in NY and one in DC.
