Yeah, again, you didn't really look at it, or try to even understand it did you?
Yeah, 6 years and you're eligible for a "Full" pension, but how much you get is based on years of service and salary.
Kind of like every other pension.
You don't get $70k for serving 6 years.
Someone who serves 6 years, is getting a wildly different payout than someone who serves for say 20 years...like every pension.
Jesus, this is why the pension thing is so annoying.
Typical person: MPs get giant pensions for life!
Someone who actually took the time to look at it: They get a good pension, to be sure, but it's not wildly different than any other DB pension.
Typical person: They Get a full pension after 6 years! That's crazy!
