I do't begrudge anyone collecting a military pension. I was responding to an earlier post by Maj which was as follows:
"I read somewhere today that 40% of Americans rely on the government. I think this a generality… but certainly an eye opener. If I am retired military, does this mean I rely on the government? (The government got something in return for my pay.) Please note that I am not solely relying on the pittance that repays me for 23 years of service."

His reference to a "pittance after 23 yerars". In industry you don't receive a full pension after 20 years pitance or not unless you are 62 or 65. I was not demeaning the military as I served but not as a career member.

I read that you contribute 2.5% to your military pension. How is the contribution made to military pensions invested? Is the benefit guaranteed by the government?
