28 years old, union public works city employee. Can retire at 55. I currently get 14% of my checks taken out for state retirement, the city matches 10% of that and I am contributing 5% more int a deferred compensation plan. Also great benefits. Currently make 65k a year. Is this a factor alone in deciding to possibly move to the private sector?
