About this listen

"I don't love this job anymore, but should I stay for the pension?" This gut-wrenching question is common for many people working in pensionable careers. But how much is your pension worth? And, is staying worth it?

Since 2017, Grumpus Maximus has researched and published material about this critical decision point, which he calls The Golden Albatross. Having served 20 years in the US Military, he, too, struggled with the same questions, and now he helps others learn from his mistakes.

If your job offers a pension, then this book is a must-have. Easily learn how to calculate your pension's objective value and weigh it against the subjective benefits of leaving for more fulfilling work. When done, you will agree, it was worth it.
