There’s a guy I work with that is 70 or older still doing it.

One day in the 60k a year area. i do heating and air conditioning. one perk for me is I don’t need a reliable everyday car to get to work, I get a work vehicle oh yeah sexy econoline 250, shits a classic, they don’t even make um any more! ---

So I’m putting in but I need to put more in. Maybe next year when I get another raise I’ll do 10% ---

I do 7% currently. I can see myself probably going up 1% every other year till I hit 12/15%. Max is 35%. Looking forward to seeing it grow. And union dues ☹ ---

> [@llink78](#): > > I do 7% currently. I can see myself probably going up 1% every other year till I hit 12/15%. Can do up to 35. Only started 4 months ago. Looking forward to seeing it grow. And union dues ☹ What do you do for a living? thats one thing I can do is try to join the union for my field of work, usually get a pension I believe for retirement. ---

Lambo and Bentley and Maserati are all rumored to have a new SUV coming. And it’s a GOOD THING the 911 doesn’t weigh 6,000 lbs. ---

Just to be clear, it is not the actual weight of the vehicle. It is the weight plus capacity. Another thing, not all suv are 6000gvwr. I doubt the Macan is 6000. ---
