The Feds have a pretty good composite system.
1.1% pension
5% 401k match
Social Security
You carry your same subsidized insurance into retirement.
Your contributing to all these things throughout your career, but in the end it’s a pretty nice setup.

Most teachers retire by 60. There are some financial "early retirement" benefits
