DB Pension: Commuted vs. Annuity
Post Body

I am 30, and my options are:

  1. 10.6K commuted value, Now

Or

  1. 273$/month for life. (3,276$/year)

Spouse is entitled to 60% if I pass.

It starts at age 65 (in 35 years)

Which do you pick, and why?

Edit: PUBLICLY OWNED COMPANY, not government pension

Comments

Doesn’t sound like you’ll have this problem but usually commuted values have a locked In and cash payment. The cash payment is taxed at a high rate and you won’t have that to invest. I see a lot of people trying to compare their CV to the annuity without factoring in the tax hit.
