EARLY RETIREMENT

Many people have their retirement accounts in the stock market through 401k programs. These people have seen their account value decline significantly with the collapse and crisis in the credit market. These people are now looking at putting off their retirement.

Many companies are at the same time trying to streamline their operations by offering early retirement programs.
Some companies are reducing staff through layoffs, or reductions in force. 

If someone is depressed about their financial future and dreads the prospect of working at the same jobs for many years to come. There is an alternative.

Suicide: The ultimate VER

(Voluntary Early Retirement)

This slogan came to the Kodiak Perspective while listening to “Fresh Air” and a story about David Foster Wallace, who hanged himself. The Kodiak Perspective does not advocate or encourage suicide, it just came as a funny slogan to put on a t-shirt.
