I thought the guy was out on disability or something, but apparently nypd proles can retire after 20 years. This guy became a cop at 21 and was "retired" at 41. He was a lieutenant, which is a pretty low rank from my understanding.

His pension is $97,000/year and he had an additional $600k in retirement accounts. I told him that 41 was pretty young to retire and asked what he was going to do; he said he lined up a gig as a director of security for a small hospital near his near home for 78K/year. He was laughing at how easy his new gig will be schedule-wise, compared to his cop job.

Sh1t like this piss me off. How the hell does society justify GED grads making this kind of money? Granted it's not much, but for a semi-literate prole with no student loans?

Lieutenants aren't GED grads. You need a 4 year degree to be a lieutenant. And with overtime that's the highest paying rank.

It's not as common as the Op. He went out on disability. Pension is therefore 3/4 not the typical 1/2.

Lieutenant is the highest paying rank in the nypd when u include overtime.

You also need a 4 year degree.

So it's ridiculous but not common like the Op makes it out to be. Most people get around $50k pension.

this article was from early 2010. So, we have to include 5 years of raises to that $140K minimum salary.

I'm guessing minimum=base. So when you include overtime, night shift, and half-a-dozen other perks you're making bank.

people need to stfu with lieutenants and acting like they aren't prole.

the exam may be comprehensive, but it requires zero critical thought. the questions are more or less "what is section x of the ny penal code?" straight memorization - similar to a second grade spelling bee (actually, the spelling bee could involve sounding it out, so it's more difficult).

I played cards with a dude from Chicago the other day who was in a similar situation, though he's been on much longer. still going to retire a young dude. he's been in for 23 yrs, getting out in 2.

Says he goes to Arizona every three weeks. Sounded like he has another house out there based on the conversation he was having with someone across from him.

One laughable thing he's doing with all his money is putting his daughter through law school at sticker....at COOLEY. She's going into 3L and he's already paid $120k.

That's one of the big things I found of cops. They always encourage a better life for their kids and think that going the law route is 180. Instead of telling their kid to get a 4 year degree, take the police exam when they're in their Junior year and become a cop and move up.

yeah, he still seemed to have that average Joe mentality. and from the cops I've talked to, it can get you down to work in a place like Chicago or any other place with a large criminal class.

I was also shocked to hear that this dude never fired his gun. I know shootings are hyped up, but that still surprises me for a place like Chicago.
