$32 a month from a cash pension (in the form of an annuity) from a previous employer. Apparently they still exist, and it pays half of my phone bill.

- dawhizkid 9y agowow how'd that happen
- ghaff 9y agoFor people who have been in the workforce for a while, substantial legacy pensions from prior employers are still pretty common--even in tech.
- jaggederest 9y agoFortune 50 companies with enormous legacy systems. Not recommended, but it is a nice "sorry for all the stress" bonus.

They actually tracked me down and paid it out to me like 4 yrs later when I had completely forgotten about it. Probably cost them $300 to get it into my hands.
