Gotten to the point pensions are vastly inferior to 401ks unless you've got some very specific circumstances.

When I first started out of college (35 years ago) - Pensions and 401K's were both quite robust. Having both was pretty awesome, but fleeting for me. Once I left my first gig (after 10 years), I never saw another pension plan.

That's good. Tell him to keep it up. My 401k management organization lets set it so every year it will go up x%. Suggest that to your son. If it hurts financially he can set it back down, but generally you shouldn't miss it in your take home pay.

Just sucks it's relatively easy for companies to shirk their responsibility and leave the employee completely ****ed. Sometimes they don't even gat back what they've put in.
