I just quit my job with the government of Alberta. My contribution level to my pension, I think was 1/3, possibly 1/2.
I could care less about the pension, I feel that I can make 8% annually in the stock market long term. I'm in my early 30s and am a disciplined saver and investor. Many of my co-workers lacked those qualities and placed too much reliance at the thought of a pension over happiness in my opinion.
