Strategy in life is what is it is, always prepare for the unexpected, as well I know.<br />Often tho in this life there are real sides and that must be taken into account. it is not that management is "evil". but they have their needs, which are most often not yours.<br />It is not adversarial, but a manner of strategy to see how much of what I might want i can get, while giving "them" an offer that they make out for the best.<br />Convincing them of this is always a challenge.<br />Libby - my plans are my hopes, my worst contingency is that I quit, live on my 457K (untouched by the recession) until I am 58 and then receive my pension which would be 60% of my current salary.<br />I would move to a place I have prepared where that will suit my needs well.<br />I am still in the middle of this chess game and I do not see the ending yet.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04414561988993487725noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-91407496261687714.post-81758852864416958782009-11-11T18:26:18.068-05:002009-11-11T18:26:18.068-05:00those retirement plans sound amazing, don't th...those retirement plans sound amazing, don't they? ...however..the best laid plans of mice & men..Libbyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04873518747021842739noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-91407496261687714.post-32735287981600179992009-11-11T16:40:53.413-05:002009-11-11T16:40:53.413-05:00Chess is a good analogy to the lives we often lead...Chess is a good analogy to the lives we often lead.
