When you combine average pension, benefits, and the age you can retire in, which job is the best when it comes to retirement? Military, state police/fire, county police/fire, city police/fire, CIA, FBI, Border patrol, U.S Marshall.etc Pelagius. I like how you assume that I plan on being lazy and work a 9 to 5 job. I already have a fuckin career. I worked hard and served my country for 4 years in the Marine Corps and now I am becomming a fire fighter for my home town. What have you done thats so honorable that gives you the right to criticize others and make such assumptions? Well good for you. I don't want your money. Why do I have a parasite attitude? Did I say I am looking for the best career? No, I just want to know which job offers the best retirement. Answer the question or don't talk to me. I don't know whats so hard about it. I don't need you looking down at me or crazy assumptions.
