I am 56 and have a very small pension due from the musician's union.
- I will almost for sure not be contributing to the fund any longer (I am not even a member at this point), but the chance of me rejoining is not zero.
- The benefit increases by about 10% each year I delay taking benefits.
- The pension contains no COLA so that number would effectively be reduced by whatever inflation was.
- I am not relying on the money for my expenses, so could collect the money and invest it instead of waiting to start benefits.
- My wife will not receive the pension after I die.
