I wasn’t offered the 401(k) plan. Pennsylvania legislators instead used the matching money that we would have received to give us an enhanced pension fund. All Troopers with 25 years of service or more are eligible to receive a 75% of their highest yearly salary as their monthly pension.
I’ve never heard anyone complain about our pension fund or payout. I stayed around for 37 years, so I have done fairly well. Being a State Trooper was the only full time position that I held after leaving the Marines. Being a Trooper is what I had wanted to be since I was 9 y/o.
