I got out after 30 years also. Would've stayed on but big changes to our benefits were on the horizon. Wife and I have health care for life and kids are covered until age 23, as long as they are students. All that at no cost to me. Guys now are under a different contract and are paying anywhere from 4 to 7 percent with stipulations in the contract to allow the state of Pa. to raise that anytime they want. You might stay on and get more in your pension but will end up paying more for health care. Something to think about. And no, you're not too young. You put in your time.
